I have to agree Samsung on top, Apple next..

what i disagree is Nokia being in the 3rd... really Nokia 3rd place??

But if HTC was on the place of Nokia's 3rd, then there is no doubt about it.

It sounds li... moreApple has always positioned themselves at the top end of the market, because they could. Thanks to poor competitors and their lack of earlier innovation and smart marketing, Apple were winners. However they ironically underestimated changing market dynamics and those that would have bought an iPhone were it not so expense, let alone not locked to all things Apple. Samsung had the balls to take them on from the bottom up, and it is working. Buyers are upgrading like hell to top end mobiles slightly cheaper with similar features, and some better features, when before they would not have gone direct to a top end mobile. Risky but working. Apple is a great company, with excellent products but need to be more open mined and adaptable.

Wi... moreSo, you are saying that iphones are over-priced and a good profit making device. It sounds like you are saying that apple puts little into its products but charges a lot. Therfore, Samsung can't catch up with apple because apple rips its customers off.

It's fast, and the browser is slower, i'll admit, but the SGS2 isn't that much better. I own a N8 and a SG2, and believe me, I'm not that impressed with Android. It's good, but not a major improvement over Belle.

                              Sure Samsung gets the attention this year, but it is quite obvious HTC is catching up fast

                                AnonD-1082, 04 Nov 2011That will soon change and WP's marketshare will be on the rise and things will be spearheaded ... morenokia needs to get wp right first. now microsoft is relying on nokia, its a strategic partnership with ms. nokia will be making the next update with ms, so nokia phones will get the update first and features that are only exclusive to nokia phone. nokia will always have the lead in wp just like motorola will with the android phones. this is however bad for the competitors using the same os as they will always be behind and turn to another os, just like how samsung and lg will be abandoning android in the future.

                                hopefully nokia gain.some.more market shares they can make more meego phones
