  1. Samsung (17.7%)
  2. Lenovo (13.2%)
  3. Apple (11%)
  4. Huawei (9.9%)

The most affected victim of the recent expansion of Android in China has undoubtedly been Nokia, which market share of 30% two years ago declined to a mere 3.7% at the end of 2012, bringing the 7 th place in the list above-mentioned.
