Apple should be the top-selling smartphone manufacturer for 2011, according to estimates on Tuesday. The research wing for Digitimes determined that Apple's ouster of Nokia would hold for the rest of the year and put the iPhone on top of the smartphone space, at 86.4 million units. Nokia's struggles with Symbian and wait for Windows Phone would see its shipments drop by a quarter from a year ago down to 74.4 million, giving Apple a comfortable lead.
