Absolute Leader! Huawei dominates Chinese smartphone market

While remaining ahead of Apple in the global smartphone market, Huawei once again shows that it is managing to do its "homework". That's because the company has kept its lead as China's largest smartphone maker.

Data from research firm Aurora Big Data show Huawei holding a 24.7% stake in the Chinese market, followed by Vivo by 17.3%. The third place is occupied by Oppo, which maintains the 15.6% with Xiaomi almost surpassing with its 15.4%.

The only foreign manufacturer to appear on the podium is Apple in its distant fifth placeholding a market share of 5.6%. Check the complete figures for the third quarter of 2018:

Despite the Oppo and Vivo do the double at the top, the Xiaomi also stands out with the Mi 8scoring position with its 1.4%, and the best - selling the model of Apple's iPhone X. For now, the numbers still do not show the performance of the new iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max.

In addition, Mi Mix 3 and the entire Mate 20 family are also out of print because they were released recently. In this way, the fourth quarter figures promise to be exciting and the dispute can escalate further in one of the most important markets in the world.
