Just shows doesn't it 3rd place..... with a meagre 5.2%
Samsung utterly dominate smartphones right now. |
But still a lot better than those Windows smartphones isn't it. Give it a couple years and Sony will rival Samsung. They already got the better phone in the Xperia T and V.

Don't confuse handset manufacturer marketshare with OS marketshare.
i didn't realise this thread was purely to give you the opportunity to have a dig at MS. MS don't make phones.
I expect Nokia to take 3rd spot in the next year or so in smartphones and cement their current second spot as worlds second largest mobile phone maker (Nokia has 23% market share (Sony 2%)).

Interesting to see Sony quoted as saying they are "watching closely" the windows 8 situation with a view to launching windows 8 phones along side their new windows 8 tablets and windows 8 vaio's.

are these smart phones? not forgetting that samsung and nokia both sell £9 phones at tesco and most other retailers which sell ridiculously well, because in our phone shop the only nokia "smartphone" that sells is the old lumia 800 because it's been reduced to the same price as a low end samsung
