The Finnish company Nokia is familiar to most people. Started in 1965, Nokia has been in the mobile business since the very first cell phones made their appearance on the market.

Apple

Coming in at number three we have Apple, the makers of the ever popular iPhone. The new iPhone is always a best seller, and Apple are insistent on running their own operating system, refusing to produce hand sets that run Android or Windows technology.

Sony

Maybe famous for their electronics more than for their cell phones, Japanese company Sony split from Ericsson to go it alone in the cell phone market. Their phones tend to be quite expensive, which is off putting to many people, but they are pretty feature heavy.

HTC

Just scraping in to the top ten is the Chinese company HTC. They started out making only Windows devices, but now manufacturing Android phones too has led to an increase in market share for HTC. And some of their new models are pretty stunning.
