For a couple of weeks, we wrote about how Huawei unexpectedly outperformed Samsung and other competitors at the end of April

and for the first time became the leader in the smartphone market in terms of the number of devices sold. Now the situation has repeated itself.

Second month in a row

As CounterPoint analysts calculated, based on the resultsIn May, Huawei led the global smartphone market for the second month in a row. True, the gap with the “silver medalist” Samsung is minimal: Huawei’s share is 19.7%, and Samsung’s is 19.6%. I wonder what the situation will be at the end of June.

In third place is still Apple, which occupies 13% of the market. It is followed by Chinese companies Oppo, Xiaomi and Vivo, which have equal shares in the market - 8% each.

In total, 81.97 million smartphones were sold worldwide in May.

Let us remind you that Huawei dreams of becoming a leaderIt has been on sale for several years, but plans had to be postponed due to US sanctions. But while European users are abandoning Huawei products due to the lack of Google services, the Chinese, on the contrary, are increasingly supporting the local manufacturer.
