        Samsung have solved all Nokias mistakes in the Mobile Market,Nokia created a Slide Up Phone that was not Stable,an Samsung Created the Spring Up Sliders that lasted longer,then after Symbian couldn"t get advanced by Nokia,Samsung did the correct idea an Switched to Android,an we got the N9 Meego phone that was not sold Globally,a bad decision made by Mr Elop after is plan with Microsoft,an Nokia we miles behind Samsung,o.k Nokia can create good camera phones but the Tiles an Restrictions on Windows phones are not a Good attraction for Consumers,If Nokia was using Android now there phones would still make them No 1 an there name still popular,but with deal with Microsoft was a Wrong choice by the Nokia Board

          Once again we dont see Nokia in TOP 5 smartphone producers ? Nokia died in 2010, when they decided to hire Elop. They sold more smartphones with Symbian even when stupid Elop said Symbian is dead...deliberately killed MeeGo, he know with that system they can easy get 2-3% market share...like WP :D Ofc they should make money, but they make in on Windows Phone ? If yes why they sell phone part ? If they want make money they should start selling phones with Android around 2011, even 2012 will be good, and in addition with WP/MeeGo. Samsung should be grateful for Elop that Nokia didn't even try Android...

                              Also, the things you wrote are included in Lumia black update which will arrive on all Windows Phone 8 in early Q1, 2014.

                                They should really add Sony n HTC to these numbers and not put them in others! And lets face it, LG's sales are high thanks to nexus!

                                HTC has gone into losses so not including them seems logical but Sony has been bragging its success this entire year!
                                If Nokia sold 8.8 million smartphones then Sony should be somewhere close to that... Xperia C sold 1m+ pieces already in two months plus it's flagship Z1, zu and then M are new high selling devices!

                                The Ericsson breakup is turning out to be great for the company n consumers alike...
