# Apple iPhone sales outstrip BlackBerry, according to report
|
|
|
|
## The success of Apple's hugely popular iPhone range has seen it overtake
|
|
Research in Motion, which makes the BlackBerry, as one of the world's biggest
|
|
mobile phone companies.

Around 1.3 billion mobile phones will be sold this year, according to Strategy
|
|
Analytics

[**Apple**][3] shipped 14.1 million handsets during the most recent financial
|
|
quarter, up 91 per cent on the same quarter last year, according to analysts
|
|
at Strategy Analytics.
|
|
|
|
Bumper sales of Apple's flagship iPhone 4 has seen the company outperform
|
|
[**Research in Motion**][4], the Canadian company that makes the BlackBerry
|
|
range of smartphone devices. RIM shipped 12.4 million units during that
|
|
period, an increase of 46 per cent on the same quarter last year.
|
|
|
|
The reversal of fortunes has prompted some industry experts to question
|
|
whether the popularity of the BlackBerry could be on the wane, as other
|
|
devices match the mobile emailer for efficiency and usability.
|
|
|
|
A total of 327 million mobile phones were shipped worldwide during the third
|
|
financial quarter of this year, up from 291 million on the same period last
|
|
year. Strategy Analytics said that growth had been less than expected and
|
|
slightly down on the first six months of the year, but blamed this on
|
|
component shortages and ongoing economic volatility which "slightly
|
|
constrained volumes".
|
|
|
|
[**Nokia**][5] remained the biggest mobile phone maker in the world, shipping
|
|
110.4 million handsets worldwide during the third financial quarter. The
|
|
company has undergone a shake-up in recent months, with several key
|
|
executives, including chief executive Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, announcing their
|
|
departure.

Strategy Analytics said this figure represented just a two per cent annual
|
|
growth on the same figure last year, but was the ninth consecutive quarter in
|
|
which the troubled Finnish company had grown volumes above the market average.
|
|
|
|
"Component constraints aside, much of Nokia's growth during the next quarter
|
|
will depend on the success of its four high-profile new models, the Nokia N8,
|
|
C7, C6-01 and E7," said Strategy Analytics in its report. "The first three
|
|
handsets will be attacking Sony Ericsson, LG and Samsung, while the E7 will
|
|
set is sights on RIM, [**HTC**][10] and others."
|
|
|
|
[**Samsung**][11], which shipped 71 million handsets in the third quarter, and
|
|
LG, which shipped 24.8 million devices, made up the rest of the top five
|
|
handset makers.
|
|
|
|
Strategy Analytics warned that LG's apparent inability to capitalise on the
|
|
premium smartphone boom was "causing financial pain", and also said that
|
|
Samsung was experiencing a "healthy demand" for Android-based devices which
|
|
was helping to drive its success.
|
|
|
|
It is anticipated that around 1.3 billion handsets will have been shipped by
|
|
the end of this year, the biggest every annual total. However, Strategy
|
|
Analytics warned that the "volatile supply" of some key components could
|
|
prevent some vendors from delivering the full range of phones they had hoped
|
|
to provide.
