After dominating the smartphone market in India, Xiaomi has surpassed Samsung to take the numero uno position in the global smartphone market for the first time. The Chinese giant, after a profitable run in June, became the top smartphone brand in the world by beating major tech giants such as Apple and Samsung.
So, taking these opportunities, Xiaomi managed to up its offline sales in lower-tier cities. Following this, the company managed to acquire a market share of 17.1%, thanks to the increase in sales of Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and the Redmi K40 series models, as per the Counterpoint Senior Analyst Varun Mishra. It’s also important to mention that Xiaomi has achieved this feat without having a presence in the United States.
