In the impression, only Chinese fruit powder lined up to buy apples. Domestic mobile phones seem to be untouched abroad, but the wind and water are turning, and now foreign people are lining up to buy our domestic mobile phones! ! !

Nowadays, domestic mobile phone brands are increasingly sought after by foreigners. Even if domestic brands release new machines, they will usher in a rush to buy.

In the eyes of foreigners, Chinese mobile phones are better used for explosions.

According to market research firm Canalys, in the second quarter of 2018, China Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. sold smartphones worldwide beyond Apple, and Huawei became the world’s second-largest smartphone supplier after Samsung Electronics.

Domestic mobile phone sales lead

Data show that in the second quarter of 2018, Huawei sold a total of 54 million mobile phones, an increase of 41% over the same period last year.

Analysts pointed out that Huawei’s glory brands have rarely been sold to overseas markets. After Huawei decided to increase sales by large-scale low-end machines, the sales volume of glory brands in foreign markets reached 4 million in the second quarter, an increase from last year. 50%, especially in Russia, India and Eastern Europe, the most obvious sales growth.

Most of the industry insiders believe that Huawei’s transcendence of Apple is only a digital transcendence. From the perspective of net profit, there is still a big gap between Huawei and Apple. The average price of Apple’s mobile phone is still far ahead of the competition, and Apple’s profit exceeds 80% of the total mobile phone market, of which only iPhone X has plunged 35% of its profits.

The report shows that the iPhone X is still a best seller in many markets, and after the fall, Apple will release three next-generation models, which are expected to improve performance and functionality, which will help Apple regain control of the market. The annual fall release and the next Christmas and New Year shopping season are Apple’s real peak shipments.

For the market pattern in the second half of the year, analysts generally believe that Apple may overtake Huawei. However, Canalys analyst Ben Stanton cautioned that in the next few quarters, Huawei’s sub-brand glory and mid-range Nova series are likely to maintain rapid growth.

“If Huawei can open the US telecom carrier market, it will once again increase its market share,” a mobile phone industry analyst told reporters.

Therefore, the low-end machine can bring a quantitative advantage, and can quickly open the market in a short time. However, in order to truly surpass Apple, it is necessary to work hard on high-end machines and pay attention to the development of core technologies.
