Samsung grabs the top spot from Nokia as the number one mobile phone maker

By Leave a Comment


 

Given the strong sales of Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones and decline of market share for Nokia, I guess this was inevitable. Anyways, research firm Strategy Analytics claims that Samsung has shipped 93.5 million handsets in a single quarter managing to grab a market share of 25.4 percent which is way more than what Nokia shipped in the last quarter. In comparison, Nokia shipped only 82.7 million units.

This milestone has ended Nokia’s 14-year stint at the top as the world’s numero uno handset maker.

Meanwhile, Samsung also announced their first quarter results today, which was pretty much positive thanks to the sales of Galaxy smartphones.
