During the first quarter, 6 million Samsung Galaxy A51 was shipped which covered 2.3% of all Androids sold globally during the tenure.
The Galaxy A51 is a popular handset around the world, especially in Europe and Asia.
The success of the Galaxy A51 can be attributed to its impressive display, camera, and battery combination.
However, it wasn't just the Galaxy A51 that clocked in great numbers for Samsung; the company could manage to get four of its phones in the list of top six best selling smartphones in the quarter.
When it comes to global smartphone sales, Samsung dominates the Android share with its budget and mid-range devices with camera, display, and performance equipped with the latest technology.
The company's Galaxy A series is so popular among users that it took the top three spots in the best-selling Android smartphones list last year.
Despite the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent decline in smartphone sales, Samsung seems to be continuing the trend this year.
Cited in global reports, Juha Winter, associate director at the Strategy Analytics said, "As mobile operators have reduced subsidies in recent years, and many countries are now tumbling into post-virus recession, smartphone consumers globally are becoming increasingly price-sensitive, and they are seeking out new Android models that deliver the biggest bang for their buck."
