        Samsung it's the 2nd biggest company next to Apple according to the ranking of 500 biggest companies. It's clear that their products are the best. And next to Samsung it come Google ahead of Microsoft. In more 2, 3 years, Samsung and Google will be the 2 biggest companies of the world ranking.

            Samsung is see still dominating the phone market? unreal. It's ironic how their phones are doing this well. They have android
            Sony has Handroid
            HTC has android

            but no one comes close to them?

              GSMArena needs to post that graph image separately in vertical. Posting that horizontally is just making me don't understand some part of the graphs properly on my 15.6 inch 1080P laptop :-/

              On the other hand, I will only congrats those brands who are not flooding the markets with similar smartphones with just one-two new features added and made a different phone. Those who are in the place with just 3-4 smartphones are the true brands who deserve congrats.

              Too many people buying Samsung just because others buy it as well. Don't deny it anyone because deep inside, you know it as well ;) Don't forget S3 won smartphone of the year just by its huge sales... Therefore, bring some good logical valid points before trolling me.
              Thank you

                And this is before the S4 sales start. And of course, not to mention the coming of the Note III. But just check again at around the same time next month. That Apple chunk is about to get a lot smaller.

                    You say China brand sale is in decline. Can the article writer tell us who is this "Others" brand who have bigger combined sale figure than Apple?
                    I can bet all my money this "Others" brands are all China phone makers that include Oppo, Zopo, Xiaomi, ThL, Jiayu & etc

                                    oh and despite all the"flooded market" comments..Samsungs majority of sales comes from its high and medium end phones which are basically just S, note and ace series..that's not"hundreds" of phones...most Samsung success is still mainly coming from:

                                    Galaxy note
                                    Galaxy note 2
                                    Galaxy note 3 (from around november)

                                    Galaxy S2
                                    Galaxy S3
                                    Galaxy S4 (from this week)

                                    Galaxy ace
                                    Galaxy ace 2

                                    note and note 2 have sold over 20m combined..
                                    S,S2,S3 have sold 20m,40m and 50m+ !!

                                    THAT'S what you call success with both high end phones catered to different needs..as well as lower cost, but still great powerful mid range handsets for those who want what a SAMSUNG gives but can't afford a market leading phone! DEAL WITH IT.
                                    IPHONE was a great product...5 YEARS AGO! its outdated and totally outclassed by Samsung...u STILL can't even multitask on the iPhone 5!!
