Trotz mehrerer Berichte, die auf eine „schwache Nachfrage“ nach dem iPhone X schließen lassen, erweist sich das bisher teuerste Smartphone-Modell von Apple als sehr beliebt. Jüngsten Schätzungen von IHS Markit Apple shipped 12.7 million units of its flagship device in the first three months of 2018, making the iPhone X the most popular phone in the world.
Even though the number of devices shipped is well below what Apple achieved a year earlier with the iPhone 7 Plus (18.3 million), it is still remarkable that the ultra-modern (and expensive) iPhone X has beaten every other model on the market. Samsung's most popular model was the Galaxy Grand Prime Plus, an entry-level model that costs less than 150 US dollars.
As our chart illustrates, the dominant Apple and Samsung IHS cites the delay in the release of new models as a probable reason for the absence of mobile phones from Chinese manufacturers in the list.
