The Galaxy is Samsungs only smartphone line their other smart phone the Samsung Infuse was replaced by the Samsung Galaxy S.  Also Samsung sold more cell phones last year 314 million then Apple has sold iPhones since they launched.  Also Samsung is on pace to overtake Nokia as the market leader in cell phones if not this year then next year for sure.

1) 50.2 million = Galaxy + Windows Phone + Windows Mobile + All others Android. There are a lot more smartphones made by Samsung than Galaxy. Out of 177 phones sold by Samsung 28 are Galaxy.

2) Yes I alreday said Samsung sells more phones than Apple but iPhone sells more than Galaxy only.

Anyway the lifetime figures to iPhone is 271.1 million units as end of Sep... iPhone 5 is set to double this number (500 million lifetime before iPhone 6?).

PS. I checked just the Samsung US store... there are more than 177 phones but you get my point.

I give Apple credit for being the most valuable company on paper based mostly on hype and halfway decent sales but when it come to the Galaxy versus iPhone.  The Galaxy is the clear winner.  Apple isn't even advertising the iPhone 5 on TV in the US because they know they are rapidly loosing marketshare to the Galaxy and other android phones in general.  Also those 28 different Galaxy models are pretty much Samsung's smart phone lineup since the Infuse got discontined and replaced by the Galaxy S.
