A report released by the market research and consulting firm Strategy Analytics has found that the Samsung Galaxy SIII is the world?s best selling smartphone in the Q3 of 2012.? The numbers show that the SIII has sold 18 million units in Q3 and the iPhone 4S only sold 16.2 million.? Close to be sure, what was even closer is the global share of the smartphone market with the SIII having 10.7% and the 4S at 9.7%.? Now granted this is a big step for the SIII however it is downplayed a bit by the fact that the 4S had competition from its newest member to the iPhone family the 5.? Which sold 6 million units with a global share of 3.6%.? Now the question really comes down to can the SIII hold the spot in Q4 with the iPhone 5 picking up speed?? We shall find out in a few months.
