- laumars 14y agoThe S3 is the biggest selling handset. Even beating the 4s as well: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2013723/samsungs-galaxy-s-iii-outsells-the-iphone-4s.html http://www.pcworld.com/article/2013723/samsungs-galaxy-s-iii...
- halostatue 14y agoI don't have any evidence to support this, but I suspect that the ranking is: 1. iPhone 5 2. SGS3 2. iPhone 4S 4. iPhone 4 This fits, more or less, with what I saw on the uSwitch site that our erstwhile correspondent indirectly referred to. I "tied" 4S and SGS3 because they're going to go to different needs. I suspect that the SGS3 is roughly the same "price" as the 4S (it's actually $20 more with a contract at bell.ca) but includes LTE which the 4S does not. Unless Apple changes its release cycle (unlikely, IMO, but entirely possible given the rapid iteration from iPad 3 to iPad 4 + iPad mini), CQ3'13 will probably see the SGS4 outsell the iPhone 5—for the same reason that the SGS3 outsold the iPhone 4S: a new lead product from Apple was introduced. Is it possible that the SGSx becomes the most popular phone for more than an Apple introductory quarter? Yes. Samsung is investing VERY heavily in brand marketing (see Asymco for an analysis on that, but it's something like 13x Apple's entire marketing budgest) and the SGS3 is supposed to be a Very Good Phone. Claiming that this is true now, however, is an Extraordinary Claim, requiring Extraordinary Evidence.
