Samsung tops its highest global smartphone market in 5 years
Samsung has recently surpassed its five-year peak in worldwide smartphone market share. Samsung was the best-selling smartphone brand in April 2022, with a market share of 24%, the highest since June 2017. The Galaxy S22 series and the lower-cost Galaxy A phones, undoubtedly, were once again the catalysts for this fresh popularity. Since April 2017, Samsung hasn’t achieved this degree of global domination. It had a 25 per cent market share at the time.
In April 2022, Samsung came within 1% of breaking that record. In terms of phone sales, Samsung’s market share soared to 24 per cent, while Apple’s fell to 15 per cent. In April, Apple was followed by Xiaomi, which accounted for 12% of worldwide smartphone market sales. “Going forward, Samsung is likely to retain the leadership position in the global smartphone market in Q2” predict Counterpoint Research analysts, adding that the foldable segment also has a lot of potential for the Korean tech giant. In the coming August-September 2022, Samsung is also set to launch its Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4.
