- According to two separate reports, the iPhone is no longer the most popular smartphone in China.
- The HUAWEI Mate 60 Pro has now taken the throne.
- Despite Apple’s downturn in China, the iPhone 15 series is selling very well in the United States.
In September, Apple launched the new iPhone 15 series. Over the past two weeks that it’s been available, it hasn’t been faring too well in China. In fact, it’s estimated that sales are down about 4.5% when compared to the same period of days after the launch of the iPhone 14 series last year.
On its own, this might not be super interesting. However, when you combine this with the runaway success of the HUAWEI Mate 60 Pro in China, you have an intriguing result: the iPhone is no longer China’s most popular smartphone. Two separate analytics firms (Jeffries and Counterpoint) confirm that the iPhone has moved to second place under the Mate 60 Pro (via Bloomberg).
