Galaxy and iPhone to top smartphone Christmas sales
Apple, which lost its position as the world’s largest smartphone maker to Samsung in the last quarter, could regain the top spot as consumers rush to buy the latest iPhone after waiting 16 months since the previous model went on sale.
In Britain, which is often seen as the indicator for the rest of the European market, the iPhone took a 43% market share in October, overtaking phones using Google’s Android platform, according to the research firm Kantar Worldpanel ComTech.
