Because it has been a long time since 5G was initially announced, and while it is now available in certain countries, it is still a work in progress in many others, global 5G Smartphone sales have climbed significantly. However, there are currently a large number of 5G cellphones on the market, and some companies have fared better than others. Apple is in first place with 37% of the vote, Samsung is in second, and Xiaomi is in third.
Global Sales of 5G Smartphones
Apple occupies first place in the market, according to IT House news, accounting for more than half of worldwide smartphone sales and becoming the top-selling 5G gadget for the first time in January 2022. According to research, Chinese brands such as Xiaomi, OPPO, and Vivo each have a 10% sales margin on worldwide smartphone sales, adding up to 30% in total, with the majority of these sales occurring in China. Samsung was the first company to introduce a 5G smartphone to the market, and it continues to be the largest smartphone manufacturer, but its share of global 5G smartphone sales is only about 12% due to its lack of presence in China.
