Samsung will top 2011 smartphone sales target Samsung boosted by Galaxy-branded gadgets.
Driven by positive sales of its Galaxy smartphones, South Korean electronics firm, Samsung, has revealed that it expects to beat its own smartphone sales target for this year.

"We are pinning high hopes...on achieving sales higher than our previous plan," a mobile executive said at a press conference today. He did not give any details on how much the firm expects to beat its own estimations, however.

He was speaking to journalists at a local launch event for the Galaxy Note, Galaxy Nexus and for the Galaxy Tab 8.9 long-term evolution (LTE) device.

Samsung has seen strong demand for its Galaxy gear in recent years, despite being caught in a global patent war with Apple Inc.
