In addition, there is a Samsung model in the top ten, which is the Galaxy A02 in the tenth place. Shipments last year were 18.3 million units. This is the second cheapest model in the top 10, the first is Xiaomi's Redmi 9A.
In the list, in addition to Apple and Samsung, the only model that appears in the top ten is the Redmi 9A, ranking fifth, with annual sales of 26.8 million units. The average selling price of the model is about $78, and the price of the National Bank of China is starting from 599 yuan, which is only about 1/10 of the price of apple iPhone models in the top shipments, which is also the cheapest model in the top ten of the list.
In addition to Samsung's two A-series models and the Redmi 9A, the remaining seven models in the list are all Apple's. The iPhone 12, 13 and 11 won 2-4 places, with total sales of 4170, 34.9 million units and 33.6 million units, respectively.
The remaining 6-9 are covered by the Pro and Pro Max of the iPhone 12 and 13 series. Although the average selling price of the Pro model is much higher than $1,000, shipments still exceed 20 million units. Apple's total shipments last year were 234.5 million units, 39 percent of which were models with an average selling price of more than $1,000. This ratio is the highest in Apple's history.
"With the easing of the epidemic and the increase in consumer demand for high-end smartphones, Apple's dominance in the high-end market is getting stronger and stronger." Jusy Hong said.
It can also be seen that in the global sales ranking, in addition to Apple's models, the models that can be listed are basically the low-end models of each family.
