Samsung Electronics has taken up nearly half of the market share of flat screen televisions in the Middle East and Africa.
According to a Samsung market survey released on Sunday, sales of its flat screen TVs now account for 49-percent of the region's market in the second quarter.
Sales of the Samsung product have climbed 35-percent in the first half of this year from a year earlier.
The company said large-sized TVs have been especially popular as they have established a strong foothold in the premium market.
Meanwhile, the Korean tech giant has also snatched the top spot in the Middle East smartphone market.
