Top Cellphone Brands in the Market Today

 Mobile phones, or more popularly known as celphones, have emerged from being portable phones for the rich and the businessman into must-haves for almost everybody. Even kids can have their celphones for practical use and not just something to flaunt on to their playmates and classmates. The portable phones are not only used for practical and business purposes such as text messaging and calls. . They can also be used for gaming, computing, as organizers, and even as fashion accessories. Modern cellular phones integrate camera phones, 3G and wireless fidelity system so users can utilize them to take pictures and conferencing as well as for Internet browsing.  And from being electronic handsets, these gadgets have transformed into smart phones because of their business-friendly features and integration of advanced operating system.

And with the popularity of mobile phones, many companies manufacturing electronic products have added the mobile phone in their product lines while companies like Nokia and Motorola have been known as cellphone brands and manufacturers since 1980's.

The mobile phone market is over a billion and China is perhaps the biggest market. I don't have exact estimate as to the figure. Cellphone companies want to grab a lion's share in this market while others manage to gain just a slice.

 Nokia has been a leader in this mobile phone business and perhaps the known cellphone brand in the world. Apple is a newcomer but quickly gains momentum in the mobile market in which the demand for high-technology portable gadget with chic features is rapidly increasing.

Moreover, cellphone brands also carry the flagships of their origins. Nokia is to Finland while LG and Samsung are to Korea. Apple iPhone, Motorola and Palm are to USA while HTC and BenQ are to Taiwan. Brands from Japan and Sweden have joined hands to give birth to Sony Ericsson phones while Germany's Siemen mobile phones have been divested to Taiwan's BenQ. Japan still has Sanyo while China is accelerating bit by bit in the cellphone market with its Chery mobile phones. And don't forget Blackberry of Research In Motion (RIM) of Canada.



Makers of mobile phones from the regular handsets to advanced smart phones have been competing to gain a big share in the cellphone market. But perhaps, the main driving force to attain this goal is to promote them globally through different advertising media.

In the Philippines, the texting capital in the world, many cellphone brands have promoted their newest models almost every quarter with latest features and chic casings. Impressive TV ads of Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson have been able to capture the Philippine market. I have yet to see a TV ad of Apple in the Philippine television though. Maybe sooner, I don't know.

Now, the intention of this post is to bring about a list of popular cellphone brands in the worldwide market. This is the list in no particular order:

• Nokia
• Apple
• Blackberry
• Samsung
• HTC
• Sony Ericcson
• LG
• BenQ
• Siemens
• Sanyo
• Palm
• Motorola
• Chery
• Pantech

I know that there is already a list of top 10 Cellphone brands in the world in terms of sales. And perhaps, there are other cellphone brands not included in my list. However, I want to have my own list of top 10 popular mobile phone brands through a poll. Yes, I am conducting a poll and this is based on the blog readers preference in a brand.  But the list will be compressed to 10 brands. The poll will proceed until the end of June 2010.
