Apple has been losing market share for some time, it was relatively flat on units sold while the market was increasing. See e.g. this from a year ago: https://communities-dominate.blogs.com/brands/2018/02/apple-results-flat-sales-vs-year-before-market-share-down-one-pointst-.html https://communities-dominate.blogs.com/brands/2018/02/apple-...
> at one point Apple did 20% of all smartphones sold. The last three years? 16%, 15% and now 14%.
- fauigerzigerk 8y agoYes, but the question is whether that translates into lower usage share or if it's just a reflection of the fact that the useful life of iPhones is longer than that of Android phones. Also, I am more interested in what's going on outside of China, because China is not representative of anything else for various reasons.
