5G is still in its infancy, with a network of “knock down”Still in most of the world, but it is already time for rankings. To draw up that of best-selling 5G smartphone in the world was Counterpoint, an Asian company that deals with market analysis in strategic sectors such as technology.
The data released in recent days by Counterpoint refer to the end of October and this, if we consider which is the best-selling smartphone in the world according to the research, is amazing: this smartphone is in fact theiPhone 12 which, at the end of October, had been on the market since just 15 days. This means that the sales of the iPhone 12 immediately started very strong and that this device is a candidate for the record, it could become one of the best-selling smartphones ever. To confirm this is the smartphone that occupies the second position in the standings: the iPhone 12 Pro. Incredible but true, even if the question must be analyzed in depth.
What are the best-selling 5G smartphones
The top ten of 5G smartphones, according to Counterpoint, is this:
- Apple iPhone 12 (16%)
- Apple iPhone 12 Pro (8%)
- Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G (4%)
- Huawei Nova 7 5G (3%)
- Huawei P40 5G (3%)
- Oppo A72 5G (3%)
- Huawei P40 Pro 5G (3%)
- Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G (2%)
- Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus 5G (2%)
- Oppo Reno 4 SE (2%)
How to interpret the data
The thing that immediately catches the eye is the sum of the market share of the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro: 24%. This means that one in four 5G smartphones sold in the world is an iPhone, an incredible result given only 15 days of marketing at the time of writing the ranking and also given the fact that the 5G from Apple has been made to wait.
One consideration, however, must be made: these percentages may not last long. In fact, 5G is a feature currently reserved especially for top of the range (and it was even more so in October 2020). The first 5G cheap smartphones they are coming now and they are certainly not Apple branded.
Already by spring 2021 the offer of smartphone 5G medi e low cost it will be abundant and the percentages will change a lot compared to those photographed by Counterpoint.
