How Many Lumia Phones Were Sold in the US?

This is a question that has been burning in enthusiasts minds since Nokia launched the Lumia 900 and industry analyst Horace Dediu seems to think he has the answer. According to a post on his blog, he believes that Nokia has only sold around 330,000 devices since launching in the US nearly four months ago. That equals out to a few thousand less than 100,000 devices per month, which is an abysmal number considering Nokia was hoping to move millions.

Yesterday we reported that US marketshare for Windows Phones as a whole sits at around 1.3% with Nokia commanding just 0.3% of that number. If these numbers add up and are an accurate representation of the amount of handsets Nokia has sold, it looks like every 0.1% of smartphones are tied to 100,000 handsets in the market. Interesting indeed, but certainly not good news for the Finnish manufacturer.

    typos!
    “nearly for months ago”
    “it looks like ever 0.1% of smartphones”

    That’s kinda sad. Hopefully they can hold on long enough to put out some killer Win8 devices. Hopefully those will have more market penetration.

    What about the Lumia 710?

    The real question is how does being number 1 and 2 an ATT and Amazon’s sales charts for multiple months end up only being 330,000 phones? I don’t know how much I really trust these numbers.
