Top Ten Selling Mobile Phones in 2008
The Swedish manufacturer of carrying cases for portable electronics, Krusell, has released their "Top 10"-list for 2008.
The list is based upon the number of pieces of model specific mobile- and smart phone cases that have been ordered from Krusell during 2008. Krusell's list is unique due to the fact that it reflects the sales of phones on six continents and in more than 50 countries around the globe.
- (-) Apple iPhone
- (-) Nokia 3109
- (2) Nokia 6300
- (-) Nokia E51
- (-) HTC Diamond
- (-) Nokia N95 8GB
- (-) Sony Ericsson K800i
- (-) Sony Ericsson C702
- (-) Sony Ericsson K850i
- (-) Sony Ericsson K530i
() = last year's position.
"Having Apple's iPhone as the overall number one selling device for 2008 is symptomatic for the past year," says Ulf Sandberg Managing director at Krusell. "It is a device whose users are caring about their precious device, which makes them buy more accessories, such as cases. Logically the device then ends up at the top of our list. There was also a lot of buzz half a year ago around HTC Diamond. A lot of cases where then sold to that competent device, and still are. It is far more surprising to see the old Nokia 6300 to keep a Top three position from the list for 2007. A year from now when we summarize 2009 I expect to see more than four brands on our Top 10 list for the full year," Sandberg ends.
