Samsung reclaims top spot

Samsung the smartphone manufacturer has again reclaimed top spot. Sales put Samsung back in front in terms of volume, but war with Apple over larger-screened phones takes its toll on profits.

Smartphones with large screens are not doing as well as expected.

Samsung sold 83.2m smartphones globally in the first quarter of 2015, according to data from research firm Strategy Analytics, reclaiming the top spot from Apple which sold 61.2m iPhones in the same period. In total, 345m smartphones were sold globally.

Both Samsung and Apple have a healthy margin over the third biggest smartphone manufacturer Lenovo-Motorola, which sold 18.8m smartphones, and fourth placed Huawei, which sold 17.3m.
