Mobile phone sales up again.

Nokia's market share has now risen above 40%. '"Their phones are a little bit cheaper, very much tilted towards emerging markets. Basically, they're taking market share from Motorola due to greater volume," said Greger Johansson, an analyst at Redeye.'

  • Nokia: 40.2%
  • Samsung: 14%
  • Motorola: 12.3%
  • Sony Ericsson: 9.3%
  • LG: 7.1%
  • Apple: 0.6%


"Overall, 332m mobile phones shipped in Q4 2007, up 13 per cent on the same period in 2006. Some 1.13bn shipped in the year as a whole, 12.4 per cent more than shipped in 2006".
