China's Xiaomi Corporation performed its best quarter so far, with shipments ranging from 62 to 49 million phones and a market share of 14 to 14, which puts it in third place after Samsung and Apple.
Overall, global sales rose 27% to 347 million units in the first quarter, boosting hopes of economic recovery as the Chinese economy began to recover from the epidemic and rapid vaccine eradication in the United States.In the quarter, South Korea's Samsung shipped 76.5 million smartphones to capture a 22 percent market share, Canalis said. The company on Thursday reported a 66% increase in quarterly profit in its mobile business thanks to strong sales of its flagship Galaxy S21 smartphone series.
Canalys said Apple shipped 52.4 million iPhones between January and March, ranking second with a 15 percent market share, while it sold its 5G-powered 5G to Chinese buyers in the December quarter. IPhone 12 supported.Stanton said the delivery of key components such as chipsets has increasingly become a major concern, and will hamper the delivery of smartphones in the coming circles.
Apple said Wednesday that the lack of a chip could cost the company 3 3 billion to 4 4 billion in the April-June quarter, which mainly affects iPads and MacBooks.
Canalys said smartphone shipments for China's Oppo and Vivo brands also increased in the March quarter.
China's Huawei, the former No. 1 under US sanctions, ranked seventh with 18.6 million units after selling its Honor brand last year.
