Record growth in European smartphone sales in the tirrd quarter

The European smartphone market achieved the highest 8 percent third-quarter sales growth in its history – according to a survey by market research firm Canalys.

With its eight percent growth, the European market performed best in the third quarter of this year, ahead of the Asia Pacific region’s six percent growth. The increase was mainly due to the market leader Samsung, which sold 26 percent more smartphones than last year. (MTI)
