We let a ranking with sales of mobile phones during the first quarter of 2008 of all mobile phone manufacturers around the world.
1. Nokia, 115 million, 40.9%
2. Samsung, 46 million, 16.4%
3. Motorola, 27 million, 9.7%
4. LG, 24 million, 8.6%
5. Sony Ericsson, 22 million, 7.9%
6. Remainder, 46.4 million, 16.4%
As you can see, Nokia continues as the leader, selling virtually the same number of terminals that Samsung, Motorola, LG and Sony Ericsson, while highlighting the declining sales of Motorola, immersed in a division of the company.
But what about Apple? It is too difficult for Apple, with only a high-end mobile (remember that most carriers except Blackberry and have all kinds of mobiles, from the simplest to the most advanced camera or GPS) is very difficult sell batch quantity and competition. In addition, the iPhone just over a year.
In any case, Apple has sold 1.7 million iPhone in the first quarter of 2008 and apparently want to sell 10 million in 2008. We will not know as you get it, even if the iPhone 3G to launch in June, it would be difficult to reach this amount.
