yes that is correct almost all phones have ARM based processors,
however Samsung who sells more total smartphones than AAPL (though
less profit because they don't have the margins of AAPL) makes its
own chips, I don't think they buy from ARMH. I'm not sure about HTC
and NOK, but theydays they are small players
ARM is a fabless semiconductor company. It creates chip
designs and licenses them, it generally does not sell chips.
It also sells development tools for them. Samsung
produces its own processors, as well as those for apple, but they
are also based on Arm cores. For example, the popular Galaxy
S3 has an Exynos 4 Quad 4412 , which is based on the ARM Cortex-A9
MPcore.

ARMH is a supplier for Apple
