lmao, based on what's written in the article the ranking is based on report released in Feb 2022, iphone 14 stronk
[deleted] OP t1_jb9mfz9 wrote
The ranking goes from Jan 2022 to Dec 2022. You are wrong.

Based on what's on the website I'm not wrong
>In 2022, Apple became the first brand to capture eight spots in the list of top 10 best-selling smartphones, according to Counterpoint Research’s Global Monthly Handset Model Sales Tracker.
Clinking on the link redirects to this report.
Which says
>Published Date: February 2022
and
>Period: 2019Q1 - December 2021 monthly
iPhone 14 was released on September 16, 2022
I cannot find any report on 2022 data in this article

Any data to prove this? I can also make an image saying shit like this
[deleted] OP t1_jb9q5bd wrote
That... that is the source. They do the market researches, it's not The Verge.

Well, and if you have spent a second to read what I wrote.
They haven't provided any data to prove this, if they claim something they better have some data to base this on. As I said, the article does not mention any data from 2022, and links to a report published in feb 2021 as source
[deleted] OP t1_jb9s6rh wrote
Does the link you have pointed out provide any data apart from what they say?
I don't know what's the deal, Counterpoint is basically an institution (along with IDC) and they publish these reports every single year. They're trustworthy.
Additionally, financial results and units shipped reported by the companies themselves are coherent with these data.
We are not talking about 9to5
Wasik2137 t1_jb9uqwz wrote
The entire article, any link mentioned in it does not provide any data on 2022, Apart from that one graphic which claims to be on mysterious data which does not exist.
Have you ever seen any proper research? Any proper article based on research? If you want to claim something, then you provide the data behind that claim, even with paywall between it.
THERE'S NOTHING HERE, STOP DEFENDING THEM, UNLESS YOU WROTE THAT ARTICLE THEN WRITE IT AGAIN

Avoiding the point here I see.
I have a feeling that proper research are those in which Android comes out at the top. Reddit love its bias.
Well tough titties, there isn't a single Android model that sells as much (as reported by Apple, Samsung and others).

And Apple fanboys don't even realize this list is meaningless. Apple produces like 3 models a year therefore their individual sales are higher than those from other manufacturers. Samsung, Xiaomi, etc produce a million different models so their individual sales are lower.
> The top-10 list contributed 19% of the total global smartphone sales in 2022
Oh look, 81% of global sales are pretty much all Android. Apple with its limited choices couldn't even come close to Android.
If Mercedes produced a single model and sold 2 million of it, while BMW produced 20 models and sold 1 million per model, Mercedes would claim being "the top model" while BMW would actually be selling 10 times more.
That's your Apple fanboy fallacy. Claiming leadership while android has more than 72% market share. Apple's models are individually at the top only because Apple produces so few models.
/u/GMW-5610 come defend your incoherent logic here too.
[deleted] OP t1_jbg6m7w wrote
Why do you describe fragmentation and make it pass as a good thing? Thank fucking God Apple makes only 4 models a year! As long as they rake in 80% of the profits I bet they're happy.
The main takeaway of the list is, if people are willing to spend a gran on smartphone chances are they're gonna buy an iPhone, and that Android flagship are pretty much pointless vanity projects.

First of all, it's about 60%. But more importantly, that's not the brag you think it is. It means Apple sells 20% of all phones with 60% of all profits. This directly means their profit margin per phone is incredibly high compared to other companies. Which directly means they are overpriced pieces of shit that Apple fanboys are willing to pay 3x their actual worth.
You are bragging about being chumps.
You wouldn't defend ANY OTHER COMPANY doing exactly that. If Coca Cola sold 1000 cans and made a profit of $1000 ($1 per can) , while Pepsi sold 2000 cans and made a profit of $500 ($0.25 per can), you wouldn't come here and brag about paying more for Coca Cola than it's worth, while 80% of everyone else enjoyed Pepsi.
Apple is sucking your wallets dry and you are defending their profits. You are an excellent soldier of abusive capitalism.
> if people are willing to spend a gran on smartphone chances are they're gonna buy an iPhone
No, suckers spend $1000 on an iPhone which is actually worth $300 (remember the record profits for Apple) while smart people pay $500 for a $300 phone (that's how other brands sell more units and make less profit per unit).
The numbers don't lie. Apple makes more profit per device, which means they are worth a lot less than what you are paying. And you are defending it here 😅

The Bills of Materials alone is 500$. This doesn't include of course R&D, software and assembly.
You know costs tend to levitate a bit when you have an army of 6 figures wage developers working on your updates for 8 years. Surely more costly than some Indian community member on some forum cooking a ROM update in his basement.
You are a pretty uninformed armchair analyst.

You don't know the concept of an illustrative example, do you? Android phones don't cost $300 either. Pepsi doesn't sell 1000 cans and make $0.25 per can. Those are example figures for your feeble mind to recognize mathematical concepts.
But who am I talking to, an apple fanboy. Logic isn't applicable here. If you believe Samsung and Google don't have 6 figure wage developers but instead use community ROMs, then you are far more ignorant than i initially assumed.

This is only cause only Apple users are brain-washed enough to think they should be buying a new phone every year during the current economic climate.
Anyway, does this look like a monopoly? It sure does. Hopefully Antitrust regulators catch up to this news. This is a strong indicator that Antitrust watchdogs should start considering splitting the app store from the hardware maker.

Yes, Apple maintained its position as the world leader in smartphone sales. According to the latest market report, Apple was the first manufacturer to take up eight premier spots in the global top 10 smartphones list.
