Nokia N9 still ranking
 
On the Gsmarena stats page.

The Nokia N9 is sitting pretty on 16M views, just 300k below iphone4, and way above 4s, and 3gs.

But biggest surprise by far, for me, is the top dog is actually the N8.

Makes you wonder, if only Nokia had balls..

Well, well, you see, the iPhone is not a GSM phone. GSM is a 2G technology that is used in Europe only and the iPhone can also use this technology. The iPhone is invented in the US and use CDMA and is selling well outside the GSM market.

That is what the say and believe. No need to wake them up. You need a bigger hammer to wake up a reverse polE.

Not completely true sir. :D Out of the four major US carriers, two are CDMA and two are GSM. Most of the "minor" carriers are also GSM. The iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS were not CDMA phones. They were exclusive to AT&T and only used GSM and HSDPA standards. Apple began to make a separate CDMA iPhone for the two CDMA carriers starting with the iPhone 4. Apple implemented CDMA and GSM capabilities in both the iPhone 4S and 5 to save money and time so they wouldn't have to manufacture separate iPhones for each carrier. GSM has been in the US before CDMA.
Source: I had the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3GS with AT&T.

#2 design flaw is the usb cover...

Maybe! But if the n9 had wireless charging then it makes sense that the usb should be covered. I can imagine Nokia had this in mind with the n9 design language but wireless charging wasn't up to scratch at the time of its release. You cant deny that from a design prospective the usb cover adds the streamline design.

Nokia 5800 was really at the top but GSMArena removed it, no idea why.

From the number of hits on it, were it still up there now it'd be in 6th place.

Last time I checked it was around the third. But 6 is still good for such a terrible phone.
