Samsung’s JK Shin has confirmed big sales for its smartphones this year. According to Shin, Samsung is looking to sell at least 60m smartphone handsets this year. This is a big number when you consider that this estimation is three times then 2010 where Samsung broke the 20m smartphone barrier.

Last year was a meaningful one for Samsung’s smartphone business. By selling more than 20 million smartphones, we’ve successfully built a foundation on which to grow. And by selling 60 million smartphones this year, we will solidify our status as a top-tier industry player.

Samsung showed a decent number of Android smartphones at CES last week and is expected to show even more with dual-core processors at the MWC next month.
