Android and iOS: iPhone sales increase Apple’s market share
The source of this progress of iOS in the world is the excellent sales of the iPhone. In fact, 8 out of 10 smartphones sold in Q2 2018 iPhones in the United States. Since January 2018, Apple has experienced strong growth that has accelerated over the past few months. For example, although the iPhone X is the best-selling smartphone in China, Android represents more than 80% of the market share and is even experiencing an increase in this huge market.
New iPhones will be released in the next few months. We will see early next year whether Apple will continue to take market share from Android thanks to the sale of these new devices. Meanwhile, the iPhone X doesn’t look like a flop as some analysts suggest.
