Galaxy S II takes first in sales/search chart from the iPhone 4 in the UK during May
|

Reports from the uSwitch mobile tracker has put sales of the newly-released Samsung Galaxy S II Android phone ahead of Apple’s iPhone 4 in May.

The figures take into account sales and ‘live searches’ for the handsets, and are based on figures from the website and a number of affiliates - so they won’t be completely reflective of the actual sales figures across the country.

The rest of the top ten is dominated by HTC - with everything from the original Desire (third) right through to the Desire HD (fourth) and newly released Sensation (eighth) featuring.

Research In Motion and Sony Ericsson have just one model each at the very end of the chart (the Curve 8520 and Xperia Arc), while Nokia, Motorola, LG, and others are nowhere to be seen.

For those who like slagging off a friend's choice in mobile platform, Android makes up eight of the ten positions in the chart.

For the more sensible, it’s worth noting that Apple is only actually selling two phones right now (iPhone 4 and 3GS).
