This ideology no follow bros

Do you know what demand is?

Cheap things attracts more customers

An average nigerian can't afford a phone of 300K

Before apple sell two of their products xiaomi don sell over 100

Now do the mathematics yourself, who's gonna make more profit?

Leave that chief he doesn't know what he is saying.

He doesn't understand what is called mass appeal in business and turnover of sales like you explained.

And he doesn't understand that the 2 trillion is not gotten from phone sales alone, it comprises of all Apple Inc which includes iMac, Macbook Pro, MacBook Air, Airpod apple services etc

yeah... They are all smartphones. Which is why I always tell people buy what you can afford. If you can buy it twice, it means you can afford it, don't kill yourself.

Incidentally, guys dey buy iPhone for 9ja o.
I know what I'm saying.

Tho UK used...
second hand phones don't count because it doesn't increase shipment. If someone byyz the phone in UK used it and send it down to Nigeria, it's counted has been bought in UK and nothing else. 80% of Nigerian iPhone users won't count because they are second hand or even fifth hand. But you will see alot of Nigerians buy new xiaomi, Huawei and Samsung. It will be hard for you t see a UK or US used xiaomi or Huawei.

Samsung sef is over rated. I used it before getting Huawei (best phone with value for money I ever bought).
If not for American sanctions Huawei had already surpassed Samsung as no1.

"An average Nigerian can't afford a 300k phone" doesn't mean all average Nigerian will buy Xiaomi... Before Xiaomi will sell 100, they will have to struggle the market with Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Huawei, Nokia etc.
Why do you think Samsung is producing so many midrange and entry level smartphones this year. How did they beat Xiaomi to #1 on the Indian market??
So before Xiaomi reaches 100, Apple has sold more than 20. Do the math again
Brother make I clear you first because it seems you're missing something the 2Trillion is not gotten from phone sales alone it comprises of all Apple Inc Products And Services which include, iMac, MacBook Pro and Air, iPad etc.

About the market share imagine you're selling 100 phones before and suddenly starting selling only 80 will you stil get profit for that 20? So what this implies is that the phone department sales is declining. Am not too much of economics to explain really well but surely their profit is threatened

Could you please mention the telegram group? I'm eyeing a phone as a upgrade to my xiaomi Note 8. Would be nice to actually hear real life experience comparisons

I mentioned it but if you got any phone in mind, join the telegram group of the phone you wanna buy and ask away.

But you gotta be specific in what you want and don't show you're a dunce when it comes to mobile tech or else they won't take you serious.

and if you read the article "clearly" first, you'd notice it's about the shipment of phones for the third quarter of 2020 (July to September), the IPhone 12 was released late, last year the IPhone 11 was released early hence the - 10.6% year on year.
the only phone Apple released in 2020 was iPhone SE and for it to ship that amount of phones in a year where people are mostly buying midrange and flagship killers smartphone, that's impressive.
And oh, the $2 trillion thingy was a comical diss not that it represented iPhone shares in Apple capital revenue

We growing EL-RAPIDO.
As soon as a Nigerian user gets the Xiaomi experience, he becomes a preacher of the goood news. Got mine less than a week ago based on info from a friend who got his a few months ago and I've convinced at least 2 people planning to buy why they should ditch mumufinix and stupidno and go for Xiaomi.
Good things sell themselves

For every 65k Xiaomi you buy, Apple sells 350,000k iPhone. Now do the maths... Apple doesn't need to be on top of the list to make mad profits. Apple is competing with Aramco for the public traded company with the largest capital market share... That's Saudi Arabia owned oil company...
Y'all android fan boys are always looking for a little chart or ranking to hate on Apple but it's $2 trillion y'all
apple market share reducing means profit reducing too.

Iphone is not making a lot of money as it used to as alot of people are keeping their iphones longer in countries like usa where there is brand loyalty.. Thanks to the fact that apple just keep churning same product with different name every year and not as innovative anymore.

That's why apple is diversifying as quickly as possible and not rely so much on iphone sales.

3 Chinese brands now occupy 2nd, 3rd and 5th rankings of mobile phone global shipments.

It could be safe to say that China produces half of all phones used in the world.
Unless they start producing their own chips, that may not be sustainable.

America is currently blocking all chip exports to China.

They are still using their old stockpiles.
