Na only africa dey use xaomi the rest of the developed world use iphone
You need to mingle with others in these developed world.

Not everyone owns an iPhone or buys one outright (look up financing).

Those who buy are ;
Loyalists (numbers are decreasing)
iSheeps
Those who got no choice (iMessage used by their employer, study groups, friends)

Only a handful buy it for what it truly offers and not for above reasons

Do you think Samsung, Huawei or Xiaomi would be top 3 if they only sold $700 phones
Samsung best phone for 2020 was Galaxy A51, how much was that??
Side note: The Samsung Galaxy S20 series underperformed in the market, their redemption is the Galaxy S20 FE.
Apple dropped the IPhone SE 2020 in 2020 with an outdated design (large bezels, one rear camera and all) and it was the 5th most bought phone in 2020 because it cost $400.
Trust me if Apple usually compete in the mid range and entry level phones, they'll have been #1 but they don't have to, their profit margin are not yet threatened
this is ridiculous.

This is like saying ferrari is making more profit than toyota because ferrari sell more expensive cars but happen to have less market share than toyota.

Seriously?

The future is bleak for iPhone.

China is giving It a lethal blow right now.

That's why America is fighting back. They have stopped selling chips to China.

Right now, the biggest priority of the Chinese industrial sector and govt is how to produce chips.
They are still working on it.

It's highly sophisticated technology.

Once they get it, iPhone is finished.

Lol no reasonable user will pick xiaomi over apple. If apple was sold for less than 100dolls no one will use androids.

Apple dropped to 5th, because BBK brands shipped more than 77M phones (Canalys numbers) and they became the world's second biggest smartphone maker, right after Samsung with a 20% market share, even bigger than Huawei!

So the ranking is:
1. Samsung
2. BBK (brands: Oppo, Vivo, Realme, OnePlus, IQOO)
3. Huawei
4. Xiaomi
5. Apple
6. Lenovo
7. LG
8. Tecno (Transsion Holdings)
9. Everybody else (including Sony!)

In a few years Apple will be 6th and BBK will be no.1.

Meanwhile, Xiaomi over took Apple in smartphone sales.

In Goldberg Voice, Xiaomi; You're next on the list to be banned by the US Govt. grin

every products have their market nitche.

Apple is majorly for the rich or let me say middle class users

I blv the shipments mentioned in the post was based on demand and past sales analysis which does not necessarily translate to the actual purchase cos of change in demand, taste and uncontrollably situation

Differently,
I think apple technical and marketing teams have stopped working or else they should have device a new strategy and tactics to penetrate the dynamic market with a middle range apple product to compete more favourably with Samsung and others.

You can never remain the market leader if you are not flexible to desperately meet the needs of your users!

Apple needs to wake up before they completely price out of the market

They needs a middle range product now or never that world is batting with the negative effect of covid19 to retain the top position.

Finally, let their marketing and technical team conduct a serious market research to gather Information for effective decision making .

you have forgotten about turn over, you are not a good business man. You wonder why an Igbo man will sell a goods with 5# gain, and sold like 3 container under a week and another will sell at 100# gain but it will took him like 2_3 to sell off one container of goods. Do the math and see who is really gaining. It is call turn over. It doesn't matter how high U place Ur price of goods what matters most is the yearly turn over.

I knew it would get to this very soon coz I'm typing this with my Xiaomi Mi 9 which has a badass processor Snapdragon 730. If you are a Xiaomi user, join this queue. Apple, that company will continue to fall off the pecking order in the smartphone market unless it can address its inflated price tag for tech gadgets. More smartphone makers are producing very powerful products these days to make the market even more competitive for apple.
