| Apr 8, 2019 at 15:15 | comment | added | Tinh Le | I get your point because top selling is quite common and natural, but I tend to think "top" is modifying "Brands", and top's role in this sentence is just the same as those of "mobile phone" and "selling" which are playing as adjectives | |
| Apr 8, 2019 at 15:13 | comment | added | TrevorD | "top-selling" is a compound adjective: the mobile phone brands which are the 'top sellers'. You suggested sentence does not make sense to me: what is a "selling brand"? | |
