        samsung didnt overtake nokia but nokia sales comes down which made samsung to overtake.
        And do you expect nokia and others to stand still htc already unleashed their one series and is well recieved,lg and sony is launching an array of new device.
        Nokia is preparing windows 8 phone and meltemi powered devices.

            Wow! That's a great news, Samsung deserve this, they really doing great work on their product and dare to try new stuffs to gain public attention, galaxy note is a great example, a lot of ppl doubt of this big phone, complaining cannot operate it by using one hand, yet slowly, many ppl ended up buying one, why? Because big screen really helps, most ppl like to online, send photos, some more with the S pen, this device really comes handy at everywhere. Congratulations Samsung!

                Nokia became the most bad brand between mobile phones, they kept stuck with Symbian OS, when they shifted they shift to Windows in some sets, be reasonable Nokia, it is time to get a new OS go with Android or some thing like it

                              Madi, 27 Apr 2012Y there has to b apple? what is with all of us. Between I a... moreI mentioned it because Apple's profit is based on 1 single product, which is totally outdated and limited, and the company does not make anything to improve it for years. It's going the same way as Nokia and RIM. Nothing personal.

                                I hope GSMarena put Samsung on the top of the list since Samsung beat Nokia
                                Samsung really provide quality and technology unlike the other brand they fooled the world with long years of backwardness with their lag and bad technology "Mostly imported from Foxccon and Compal" and now they tried to use Camera as a weapon but even in that they failed because they only gave extra width of pics not best pics quality but Samsung did

                                  Samsung ending Nokia's 14-year reign. that's great. Samsung has proved that anything is possible and nothing is impossible.you can take down the no.1(Nokia)if u can.now next i want to see Google taking over Microsoft. that's life and no life without challenges.stay focus.

                                      Luke, 27 Apr 2012...and RIM is the next one. Then comes Apple.Y there has to b apple? what is with all of us. Between I am a true samsung fan owned galaxy s then galaxy s2 and planning to buy three as well. but b realistic in terms of company's apple's profit is highest more than 10 billion and you are saying it's apples turn. Dnt give irrational comments because of such comments people start to think that v samsung fans are irrational and hate apple just for the hell of it.
                                      By the way good work samsung keep it up. Congratulations on becoming the biggest company in Asia in terms of profit and please make gs3 in such a way that it meets our expectations i no you have the potential to do so.
