Omdia, a market research agency, has released a list of the world’s best selling smartphone for the year 2022. Apple dominates the list, with only two other businesses making the cut: Samsung and Xiaomi. Indeed, Apple was the only manufacturer whose premium phones made the list. Here are the top best selling smartphone worldwide.

1. IPHONE 12
The 6.1-inch Super XDR OLED display on the iPhone 12 has a quality of 1170 x 2532 and a refreshing rate of 60Hz. The Apple A14 Cortex 5nm CPU powers this smartphone. This smartphone offers 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB/256GB of internal storage. On the rear, it has a dual-camera setup with 12MP sensors. The battery has a size of 2815 mAh and supports both 20W quick charging and 15W wireless charging.
2. iPhone 12 Pro Max from Apple
The 6.7-inch Super Retina OLED display on the iPhone 12 Pro Max has a resolution of 1284 x 2778 and a refreshing rate of 60Hz. The Apple A14 Bionic 5nm CPU powers this smartphone. This device has 6 GB of RAM with internal memory capacities of 128GB/256GB/512GB. It sports a triple rear camera setup on the back, all with 12MP sensor. It contains three lenses: wide-angle, telephoto, and ultrawide, as well as a TOF 3D LiDAR sensor. The charger has a size of 3687 mAh and supports both 20W quick charging and 15W wireless charging.
3. Samsung Galaxy S3: best selling smartphone
Both the Samsung S3 and Apple’s fifth-generation iPhone sold roughly 70 million units over their respective lifetimes. Unfortunately, sales data are rounded to the nearest million, so any of these two models may have edged ahead by a few thousand purchases. Surprisingly, both of these smartphones built on the success of hugely popular predecessors – Samsung’s groundbreaking Galaxy S2 and Apple’s Siri-enabled iPhone 4s. Both were published in 2012, during the smartphone market’s strong development era.
Samsung’s flagship effort in 2012 reinforced the firm’s position as a market leader and saw the firm begin to distance itself from the other early participants in the Android ecosystem. The iPhone 5 was another tweak in an obviously popular formula for Apple, with the slightly bigger 4-inch screen being the key selling point over its predecessor.
4. iPhone 7 and 7 Plus
Before anyone says anything, numbers are only accessible for the iPhone as a whole, much as Samsung did not disclose distinct Galaxy S, edge, and Plus models. While containing two phones in here may appear imbalanced, they are both part of the same launch and we believe it is fair to count them together.
As a result of a number of new firsts for Apple’s phones, even if they weren’t industry firsts, the iPhone 7 series ranks fourth on our list. An IP classification for water resistance, more storage capacity, and a larger battery were all compelling reasons to upgrade from an outdated iPhone.
5. Samsung Galaxy S4
Despite the plainly much more complex and high-end devices that the brand has released since 2013, 2013’s Samsung Galaxy S4 remains the company’s aim to surpass. Again, owing to strong products like the S3 and a huge marketing effort, Samsung was able to capitalize on the popularity of the Galaxy S3 to propel itself to the top of the market.
The Galaxy S4 stands out in part because of its extremely high hardware and robust feature set, as well as its excellent software capabilities. Even while some criticized Touchwiz at the time, features like eye movements and Aerial View hover touch drew attention and curiosity. Furthermore, they demonstrated that Samsung could do more with Android than its competitors, and that distinction contributed to the creation of a distinct identity for Samsung’s Galaxy brand. One that has certainly surpassed Apple’s iPhone.
6. Nokia 5230
The 5230, a cheap smartphone from Nokia, is perhaps the most surprising entrant on the list, coming in second place. It was never intended to be a smartphone in the current sense, and it didn’t even have a WiFi connection, but it outsold practically every smartphone since. The Nokia 5230 was introduced in 2009, running the company’s Symbian OS rather than Windows Mobile or the famous Android OS that powered the company’s more remembered smartphone lines.
There’s not much to say about the phone’s hardware. The 3.2-inch display, 2-megapixel back camera, and scant 70MB of useable internal storage were unremarkable. However, the lack of features contributed to the low price, making this a particularly tempting device in low-cost nations.
7. iPhone 13 APPLE: best selling smartphone

9. iPhone 13 Pro Max
