A mere month has passed since the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, and it’s already embroiled in controversy for shattering sales records in Korea, with an impressive 1 million units sold in just 21 days.

Samsung, the renowned Korean tech brand, unveiled its latest flagship lineup, the Galaxy S25, on January 22, and subsequently made it available for global purchase on February 7. Notably, the Ultra variant of the series garnered significant attention during the pre-order period. Now, just 21 days after its widespread release, the Galaxy S25 has achieved a milestone of 1 million units sold.

As anticipated, the Galaxy S25 series has set a new standard in the smartphone market by breaking sales records. It has become the fastest Galaxy lineup in Samsung’s history to reach the 1 million unit sales mark in its home country.

Previously, the Galaxy Note 10 series held the record, achieving 1 million unit sales in 25 days. In comparison, the newly launched Galaxy S25 has reached this milestone four days earlier, in just 21 days.

According to a report from Korea’s ETNews, the key factors contributing to the Galaxy S25’s appeal are its design, performance, and Galaxy AI. The new Galaxy AI Subscription Club has also made it easier for customers to upgrade to a new smartphone, which has contributed to the setting of a new sales record.

Reportedly, out of the 1 million units sold, approximately 50% are Galaxy S25 Ultra, with Titanium White silver and Titanium Silverblue being the most in-demand colors. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ have seen high demand for their Silver Shadow and Ice Blue color variants.
