What is iPhone market share?

in #apple6 years ago

i am interested to see apple's market share develop over the last few years.

  1. i am interested in the overall share of devices
  2. what is the revenue and profit compared to competitors
  3. looking for global perspective, but segregated views of countries and regions would be appreciated also.
Sort:  

1)For a long time it has been 15-20% of total devices according to every piece of statistics I've seen over the years. The sales data match with this claim: https://www.statista.com/statistics/216459/global-market-share-of-apple-iphone/

2)Apple is an efficient moneymaker. They serve less customers, have less apps and users spend less time on the store (https://www.statista.com/statistics/192296/average-time-spent-per-us-users-per-appstore) but depending on where you look at, they make 50-100% more revenue than Google Play Store.
Here is one such claim:

If you have $588 to spare for 1 year worth stats on practically everything, just go to https://www.statista.com/study/11643/iphone-statista-dossier and get the free dossier and many related stats you need. Some of the stats that were freely available some time ago have gone premium and I can't link them here.

3)I don't know a whole lot. But the best market for iPhone (percentage wise) has been Japan with 70% of the marketshare: http://techjapan.tumblr.com/post/42142826707/why-iphone-market-share-is-double-android-in

Hope this helped. But I have to say that the simplest way is to pay that $588 which is also the most expensive.

Good Luck!

Apple has the Lion's share of the profits in the global smartphone market.

I really want to have an iPhone, but it can't be conveyed yet. Hopefully in the future I can 😁

I have used an iPhone since the iPhone 4.
Started with the damn connectivity with Telekom to use them as the provider and finally end on the iPhone 6 with 4 years of usage.

As you can see in a post from me I switched over to the Huawai Mate10 pro and I promise you that Huawai will be more and more kicking the ass of apple from the top.

Since the have announced the iPhone x, I was mind-blowing about the device but also with the price about the device.

Too much money for the name in the end

All the best

Hi friend, I will give my opinion according to what I have read about this great company.

If we're going to talk about devices, I'll start by telling you that this year was the 20th anniversary of the launch of iMac, a product owned by the company that produced a revolution within it, since that May 6, 1998 when Steve Jobs announced its launch, laid the groundwork for later revolutionary products such as iPod, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.

In comparison to other companies, Apple has been working for the wellbeing of its employees, educating them and providing them with good job opportunities, and is committed to the environment by reducing the emission of gases and waste.

I hope it helps, my friend,

Greetings!
