If you’ve ever seen a mate post a status on Facebook about how they’re not sure which phone to go with you’ll know people get pretty fired up. Name-calling, arguments, horror stories, they all come out of the woodwork.
There’s the Crackberry, the i-can’t live without my-Phone and those Windows things that may as well be tablets, everyone has their own preference. But, as a country, who is ruling the roost when it comes to the top-selling South African smartphone?
According to Phonefinder, a platform that sees over 100 000 visits per month from smartphone seekers, these are your biggest sellers:
1. BlackBerry Z3
2. Samsung Galaxy S5
3. Apple iPhone 6 (16G)
4. BlackBerry 9720
5. Apple iPhone 5 (16GB)
The most popular contract prices were also revealed:
1. R239 per month
2. R249 pm
3. R169 pm

Apple’s growth is primarily due to the incredible success of its iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models, which finally placed the vendor in the large screen size segment that had previously been dominated by Samsung.
