"After the release, Apple was in the lead most of the time, only briefly surpassed by local rival vivo." The research firm said, "The new iPhone 13 led to success. ”

"The relatively low starting price at the time of the launch in China, as well as new cameras and 5G features, all boosted sales," the company said. In addition, Apple's main competitor in the high-end market, Huawei, is also facing a decline in sales. ”

The iPhone 13 model is reported to account for 51% of iPhone sales, the iPhone 13 Pro Max accounted for 23%, the iPhone 13 Pro was 21%, and the iPhone 13 mini was 5%.

Counterpoint's study did not include other iPhone models, but the company notes that the current success "has also been accompanied by the strong performance of the iPhone 12," which "contributed to Apple's overall sales growth."
