Great news from USEB today, as they’re reporting that the Sony Ericsson C905 is officially the best selling mobile phone in the UK this week. According to the weekly stats, Sony Ericsson’s share of the market stands at nearly 29%, a large proportion of which must surely be down to the C905 going on general release; and that, when you consider how many other mobile phones are on sale, is a massive success.
Mind you, having had a play with the Sony Ericsson C905, it’s not that hard to see why. Because it’s brilliant.
It is, in fact, a properly nice mobile phone. I’m not going to go on at great length about the spec of the Sony Ericsson C905, because it’s well-known by now, but I will say that this is probably my favourite of the recent crop of 8 megapixel mobile phones, partly because of the Cyber-Shot technology in it, partly because of the Sony Ericsson badge on the front, and partly because of the stupidly cool lens cover.
Yes, I know it’s daft to fall in love with a mobile phone’s lens cover, but that’s what I fell in love with on the Sony Ericsson C905. Well, after the camera, obviously.
Anyway, this is just a short blog post to congratulate the success of the Sony Ericsson C905. I’d like to leave on the words of David Hilton, UK marketing manager for Sony Ericsson, and apparently grand master of speaking the obvious: ‘This is a really good result.’
You ain’t kidding it is!
So, basically, if you want what I consider to be the best camera phone you can get, grab yourself the Sony Ericsson C905 today!

Almost, but not quite. The article doesn’t say that the C905 has 29% market share, it says Sony Ericsson has that share. “Samsung takes the second place with Nokia in third”

Phil, you’re absolutely right, my apologies to everyone, I must’ve read it wrong.
I’ve corrected the original story, and thanks for the heads up, Phil.
