check out this page for a better ref on whether K800 is a hit model
oh ya, one can argue Singapore is tiny singapore is small singapore only have like 6 million population so cannot represent anything
But the thing is.....if you visited Singapore often for the past 5 yrs
you will notice the number of SE user or SE shop or mobile phone shop tht willing to display SE product is increasing.
Same happen to other mobile phone trend barometer of asia.....HK and Taiwan
In Taiwan, SE is the 3rd mobile market in market share.
HK...not sure but every phone they launch they is a hit and price always not selling at suggest retail price for the first few weeks due to hot demand.
Back to the link....
K800 kick N80 immediately since N80 was the top phone in June
anyway to me, this thread is more like product oriented
it is not about you like SE or you hate SE.
even if K800 is the most sold out model in this planet....it will not mean SE will be world no1 coz in term of product portfolio...it is still behind Nokia and Moto
Razr have shipped 50million but it didn't make Motorola immediately become world no1...it only manage to make it close up to Nokia.

So obviously were're not talking about the widest selling phone from every price bracket. That can explain why SE can still have the biggest 3 selling phones (from a reasonable price range).
There you go. You have validated my point. What good is the list if it is tailored to show a certain results which you want to see? Nothing.
And it's true mib, all your posts are anti-SE, pro-Nokia
Is this all you can do?

At least I have not spread lies about SE. The scepticism I have about the list and SE having the top 3 selling phones in world is valid (and your statement above confirmed my suspicion).

What does the cnetasia list show? N70 was at the top position on this list for quite a few months. BUT, I wont be so naive to use this list and declare N70 is the best selling phone in the world (because I know it could'nt be just by simple reasoning).

All I was saying was that most of Nokia's market share is due to its low end market. This made made it perfectly reasonable for SE to hold the top three positions from various sources even though SE doesn't have a significant amount of market share. All the phones are on an equal playing field anyway. There are no low end phones, so what's the big hoo haa about the whole thing being rubbish if they are all equal?

Somethings telling me you are misinterpreting those figures.
If 3/10 best selling phones are from

, that doesn't translate to

having about 30% of the market share.
It means

has 7% market share but 3 of its handsets last month sold faster than anyone elses.
If this continues then the market share will inevitably rise.

I am a huge fan of both SE and Nokia, but for very different reason's...i returned to se over a year ago specifically for the k750i..i don't think ive seen such a successful handset as the k750i since the t68i..it's sales have been phenomenal...and quite rightly so...
When i managed my cpw store, our sale's were predominantly nokia..of all variety's..that was before the k750i, z520i, w550i was released...things changed..
However, at the middlebrook branch, there best seller's were SE handsets...
I remember going to a manufacturer's show and tell show (closed to the public) and i watched nokia's head of marketing, and several other employee's really have a go at se employee's showing off the w800i...really very childish..some of the remarks were downright nasty...i think nokia knew then the tide was turning a bit, so to speak...nokia realized se were on the verge of some incredible success and so this turned to very childish comments..it was incredible to hear..i was stunned...

That must have been funny to see actually - but not very professional.
I wouldn't be surprised if one of those hecklers was

You mean they were making these remarks while the

presentation was going on
Well that doesn't surprise me.
