All of the other Chinese mobile phone brands have actually gained from Huaweis international demise (other than Honor), however none more than Xiaomi, and todays news comes to validate this truth yet once again.

According to Canalys, in the second quarter of 2021, Xiaomi was the 2nd biggest smart device maker globally in terms of sales.

As you can see, Samsung is still No. 1 with 19% market share, although Xiaomi is actually breathing down its neck at this point with its 17% cut.

If its growth continues at a steady pace, Xiaomi may extremely well surpass Samsung and become the worlds No. 1 smartphone vendor in due course. Apple is at 14% presently, while Oppo and vivo each have 10% with fantastic growth as well – though absolutely nothing that compares to Xiaomis 83% over Q2 2020.

Canalys states Xiaomis objective should be to grow sales of its top of the line phones like the Mi 11 Ultra, however it might prove tough given that Oppo and vivo have virtually the exact same objective, and unlike Xiaomi, they appear to be ready to spend much more on conventional marketing.

Xiaomis shipments increased more than 300% in Latin America, 150% in Africa, and 50% in Western Europe. That stated, its average list prices per system is still 40% less than that of Samsung and 75% less when compared to Apple, although the company has actually just recently launched more premium (read: more expensive) gadgets and is plainly intending to drive that number up in the future.
