Samsung had been able to maintain the third position for their worldwide mobile phone market share, though their share decreased to 11.8% in 2005 compared to 12.7% in the previous year.

BenQ Mobile had the lowest market share in the cell phone market and their share dropped to half in 2006 than the previous year. All other mobile manufacturers’ market share comprised over 19% in 2005 and that reduced to slightly over 16% as Nokia, Motorola and Sony Ericsson had been able to secure more market share worldwide.

However, Sony Ericsson mobile had been able to maintain their sales with only a slight increase at 7.4% in 2006. Likewise, a gentle decline of less than 1% market share could be observed for Samsung and LG in 2006.
