Experts Predict HUAWEI Will Occupy 1st Place, Replacing Samsung
According to the leading analytical firms IDC, IHS Markit, and Counterpoint, HUAWEI still beats Apple by the amount of smartphones sold and has remained the world's second largest smartphone vendor for two consecutive quarters.
It was unexpected for everyone when HUAWEI beat Apple's sales and took second place, but after the presentation of the new Mate20 series, experts predict Huawei will soon be in first place and replace Samsung.
In September, the International Data Corporation (IDC) published data about the business achievements of the first half of 2018, according to which HUAWEI saw a significant growth of over 95 million in global sales. According to the data of IDC, HUAWEI beat Apple's sales and occupied second place in the second quarter of 2018.
According to the data collected during the last three months, 54.2 million HUAWEI smartphones were sold, making the market share of the company 15.8%. The amount of Apple smartphones sold in April-June was 41.3 million. According to the report, Samsung took first place with 71.5 million smartphones sold, which is a 20.9% share on the market.
HUAWEI has kept second place for two consecutive quarters. Despite the fact that its share on the market decreased after the last quarter, HUAWEI's sales amounted to 52 million, making up 14.6% of the global market. In terms of product, its P and Mate series turned out to be as competitive as never before. Should you get the Samsung Galaxy Tab or the Huawei MediaPad?
