Xiaomi surpasses Apple to become the world’s third largest smartphone manufacturer
Xiaomi managed, for the first time in its history, to surpass Apple in global phone sales after shipping 46.2 million phones during the third quarter of this year. Xiaomi surpassed Apple to place it in third place in global phone shipments after Huawei, which maintained second place with 50.9 million phones, and Samsung monopolized the first place for many years with 79.8 million phones.

Xiaomi’s success in bypassing Apple depends largely on the late launch of the iPhone 12 for October, but at the same time we cannot lose sight of the growth achieved by the Chinese company compared to the same period last year or the first and second quarters during 2020.

Counterpoint’s report, which revealed the previous statistic, also revealed that the smart phone market is still achieving a 4% decrease in phone shipments compared to last year. This percentage, which some may consider negative, is a major advance for what was the situation in the first and second quarters of 2020, as smartphone shipments decreased dramatically due to the spread of the Corona virus and its economic impact on millions around the world.

Compared to the same period last year, only 5 of the top 10 mobile phone manufacturers around the world maintained positive growth. Compared to the second quarter of 2020, all of the top ten companies achieved positive growth, the largest of which was Rimali, which achieved a huge growth of 132%.
