Also for those iPhone fans, stop deny iPhone is far behind now and seems no more innovation now's day, the new announced iOS 6 got nothing.

This probably can predicted nothing much wow on iPhone 5, or probably it will name as the new iPhone... that nothing much really new.

      AnonD-52738, 25 Jun 2012For those thinking Nokia 808 PV will beat this S III sales ... moreEven Camera. Its secondary camera is VGA, which is the worst possible option for this price range.

      And please don't forget to mention that PV 808 has only 360 x 640, which means it wouldn't ever play any hd games and hd movies.

      But you know what, PV 808 still has its charms, but it's just not good as GS3.

          It's actually quite nice to be able to hold a handset and feel the build quality. Nokia, SE, and even HTC know that, yet Samsung would rather spend its money on the gubbins inside. That's why Samsung wins.

          Having tried plenty of OS and handsets, I can't feel any fanboyism towards any brand right now. We should just accept that it's an amazing time for smartphones right now.

          Then again, I don't see any real need for me to upgrade just yet. The S3 isn't that great a leap forward that the S2 was. Apple could capitalise on that, but I don't see the next iphone being any better.

            For those thinking Nokia 808 PV will beat this S III sales is leaving in non reality.

            In dream, you will seen it selling better than S III.

            Nokia 808PV beside fantastic camera, it got nothing, old tech, old and ugly design, extremely bulky. Sure have fans on that but that potion is too little to get Nokia 808PV being a success top range phone in market.

            Wake up and stop dreaming Nokia 808PV as streamline device in today market.

            You shall happy if total sales of Nokia 808PV ever hit 1% of current S III total sales.

              CodeGEN, 25 Jun 201210 million naive people , hahahaNaïveté is something I have always associated with the iOS side. You know, that childish innocence you need to accept every order a company gives you. You know, in the fashion of "Use iTunes to transfer any file -any file-, don't use bluetooth to transfer files, your device's UI looks just good -don't change it!-, some apps are not safe -and that means they are actually good, but we don't like them-, everything about your device is magical, original, unique and revolutionary. Think different -as if we needed that you quit thinking by your own. But that's not the case. Believe it.-."

              There are many things I can say about the Android side, full of pedantic people who think the 'basics' of technology extends to management of complex processes, painful installs and all sorts of tricky apps. They seem to think everyone can/should code what they want, and that no one give a darn about usability as long as a plethora of functions is covered. But saying there's any bit of naïveté in buying a capable Android device over an iOs or WP device, only shows that you don't really know what naïf means.

                    If its 10M shipped then thats the preorders plus 1 million ready to sell; if it's 10M sold then thats mostly same same really. Need to wait to see the figures at the end of the quarter - if it's over 20M then it'll keep going on the up for a while, if under then it's already droping off the mark.

                    And yes people, just buy what suits you best. Sure, have a whine or moan [I've posted a few :-)], but then move on.

                                [deleted post]Samsung build their own phones and build phones for others like Apple and provide essential chips and latest technology for all over the world.

                                While your beloved Nokia place their outdated specs to Foxconn "Known for their human's rights violation" and Compal "Known for their bad quality" to build for them.

                                ***And the source is from Nokia/WP fanboys website!
                                http://wmpoweruser.com/nokia-putting-in-windows-phone-orders-from-foxconn-also/

                                Even the daily interest for 808 dropped so fast from 100 to 54! That's a sign than people don't want outdated phone with 38MP camera, People want technology.

                                All lumia series + 808 still didn't make that number of sales.
