The iPhone is immensely popular on a global scale, and the latest research data reveals how Apple dominated the smartphone industry in 2022. The iPhone 13 was the most popular iPhone, followed by the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Scroll down to read more details on how Samsung performed in the list of top ten best-selling smartphones list for 2022.
iPhone 13 was the best-selling smartphone in 2022, Samsung made it to the list with its budget lineup
Android smartphones have gotten a bit stale when it comes to introducing new features. Even if Google announces new features in its latest Android updates, it takes months before they are available on non-Pixel devices. Apple, on the other hand, brings new features and updates to the entire compatible iPhone lineup together. This is one of the reasons why customers prefer to buy an iPhone over an Android.
Another reason why eight iPhone models have taken their place in the list of top ten best-selling smartphones for 2022 is software updates. With the latest iPhone models, you can expect the device to feature support for at least five years. Furthermore, Apple will keep users updated with the latest security updates for a long time. Check out how different iPhone models performed in the list of top 10 best-selling smartphones for 2022.
According to research conducted by Counterpoint, the iPhone 13 was the best-selling iPhone from its debut in 2021 till the launch of the iPhone 14, with a 28 percent share of total iPhone sales. Additionally, the demand for the device remained strong even after its successor. This is partly because the iPhone 14 did not bring any major changes to the table. The design was identical along with the chip powering the device. On top of this, Apple also slashed the price of the device, which is another reason why the device gained traction.
The iPhone 13 Pro Max took the second spot on the list, with half as many devices sold as the standard model in the same period. Furthermore, the iPhone 14 Pro Max took the third spot, which is a win for the device, given it launched only six months ago. Samsung's Galaxy A13 took the fourth spot, which is the company's budget phone. The Galaxy A03 also took the tenth spot on the list.
It is surprising to see how Apple completely owned the list of different iPhone models. It is worth noting that no other flagship Android smartphone made it to the list. We will share more details on the story as soon as further details are available. Share your views with us in the comments.
