nokia china 300x199 Nokia Dominates Chinas Smartphone market share with 69.3%Apple and RIM may be eating into its share of the smart phone market in developed markets, but in China, Nokia is still king of the smartphone, where its third quarter share of sales reached an overwhelmingly dominant 69.3 percent, according to a new research report from China research group CCID Consultancy. Nokia does especially well, CCID found, as the handset maker has a product offering that spans the low, mid, and high tiers of the market. There was also good news for the embattled Motorola, which has the second largest share of the Chinese smartphone market, cornering 19.9 percent of Q3 sales. Motorola does best with the mid-range of the market. The combined share of the two companies account for nearly 90 percent of smart phone sales in China. In third place, was local handset maker Dopod (4.7 percent), followed by Korean electronics firm Samsung (2.5 percent). [CCID Consultancy]
