As a result, there was a change in leaders in the ranking:Huawei dropped from second to fourth place, having sold 5.5 million smartphones in a month. Apparently, it suffered several serious blows at once: the global crisis, the coronavirus outbreak, and also US sanctions.

Meanwhile, the competitor represented by Xiaomi pushed aside Huawei and rose to third place with 6 million gadgets sold. Apple is in second place with 10.2 million smartphones.

But the leader remains unchanged - Samsung with 18.2 million smartphones sold in February. Although her sales also dropped noticeably.

In fifth and sixth place are OPPO (4 million) and Vivo (3.6 million).

Well, if things continue like this, Huawei’s coveted first place will definitely not be seen.
