    Do I see a Lumia 950 in the background? LOL; that phone certainly never sold well; why is it here? No hate though; it was a great phone that nobody paid attention to. RIP windows 10 mobile You'll be missed.

        And you guys do you know the market that makes these top 3 Companies to be there at the top is China?!! And that's why I once said in Gsmarena forum Nomatter what other people may refuse to accept is that, China will always run the show of the world's economy. Every Smartphone Company must pass through china to make sales! And this same top companies do there Manufacturing in china, So sometimes I just laugh at people who always use this phrase that oooh " I can't buy a Chinese phone" And Bytheway most Chinese people love iphones!

                          Oppo and vivo strategy is so cheap.. They give retailers and wholesalers hidden profits to sell their product and their sales Representative is in every freaking corner to brain wash people to buy this piece of crap..
                          Huawei, apple and Samsung are the only good brands in top 5.

                              They need to switch it up.

                              Huawei are doing their own thing now and it seems to be working. They have their own distinct design as seen on the P series and Mate series

                                Anonymous, 23 May 2017yah, I wish the top 5 would still consist of Samsung, Apple... moreHTC are fully lost. They are removing stuff that attracted buyers back in the day and now think that removing essentials like the headphone jack is the way to get some customers when its the complete opposite. It reeks of desperation and is a straight off copy from Apple.

                                One thing I respect Sony for is keeping their own design language but they need to add bigger batteries and follow the bezeless route like samsung, apple and LG.

                                Moto are just releasing ugly phones on ugly phones... nothing more.
