In addition, TechInsights also pointed out that Huawei's smartphone shipments in 2023 will achieve a year-on-year increase of up to 84%, ranking tenth in the world with a share of 3%. This is due in large part to the resilience of the Chinese market. In the Chinese market in particular, Huawei's smartphone shipments skyrocketed by 93% year-on-year, entering the top five smartphone market in China, mainly driven by the iconic Mate 60 Pro.
According to TechInsights, Huawei's comeback on 5G with its self-sufficient chipset is a milestone and breakthrough for China's semiconductor industry. We expect Huawei to massively reshape the Chinese smartphone market in the coming quarters. This will put other Chinese brands at risk and affect Apple's performance in the high-end segment of the world's largest smartphone market in 2024.
