Samsung has sold in the third quarter of 2011 seems more smartphones than Apple. The South Korean group is the new smartphone market leader in the smartphone segment, the top position but it could soon have to lose again to the iPhone provider.

According to a report in the Wall Street Journal in the third quarter of 2011, Samsung has apparently sold more than 20 million smartphones, and thereby set mainly by Android, as the sk168 android smartphone. The magazine appeals to the business community. Apple has sold 17.1 million iPhones the same period, as the company recently announced its quarterly results. Nokia is in third place with 16.8 million smartphones sold.

The analyst Neil Mawston estimates, the report says that Samsung was able to deliver in the third quarter of 2011, about 20 to 30 million smartphones. Reasons for the strong growth are an attractive hardware design, advanced features, a compelling Android system and an extensive global sales network.

Compared to the second quarter of 2011, Samsung and Apple have switched places. During this period, Apple sold 20.3 million iPhones and chased it from the market leader Nokia. Samsung came to 19.6 million smart phones, while Nokia slipped to 16.7 million units, even equal to the third place.

In the current quarter, with the important Christmas trading Apple and Samsung could swap places, but again. The slump in iPhone sales numbers in recent years the section is probably due to the fact that many consumers have been waiting for the new iPhone model. The new iPhone 4S has four million units in the first three days already set a new sales record.

The shifts are likely to fuel the rivalry between Apple and Samsung continue. The companies have been running for about six months an extensive debate over alleged patent infringement and plagiarism. This is Samsung not only Apple’s biggest competitor, but also Chinese android smartphones like t32 android smartphone, and even Apple’s biggest suppliers of displays, memory chips and processors, in the iPhones, iPods and iPads are installed.
