Best Selling Mobile Phones Of The Third Quarter

The Strategy Analytics ProductTRAX program released its Q3, 2007 list of top selling consumer handsets in the US market. Motorola and LG accounted for seven of the top best selling consumer handsets.

US Q3 2007, Best Selling Consumer Handsets:

Motorola RAZR V3
Motorola RAZR V3m
LG VX8300
Apple iPhone
LG Chocolate VX8550
Motorola MOTOKRZR K1m
Samsung SYNC SGH-A707
LG VX5300
Sanyo Katana II
Motorola V323i/V325i

"3G devices accounted for 55% of these top selling device volumes. That share will continue to grow during Q4," states Chris Ambrosio, a Director in the Wireless Practice at Strategy Analytics. "While the iPhone gets the headlines, the "Sync" from Samsung and the "Chocolate" from LG quietly stole the show in the category of iconic, 3G feature phones. Samsung, in particular, is well-positioned to dominate 3G sales during the critical Q4 holiday season."

I've said it before, but the continued success of the RAZR is just incredible (in July of 2006 Motorola announced they had sold 50 million units). I realize that it is now a "free" phone but for it to still be the #1 phone in the US after all this time is unbelievable.
