Huawei leads Chinese smartphone sales in second quarter, while Xiaomi has a tougher time

Shenzhen-based Huawei also broke the record for the greatest number of channel shipments by any vendor, at 28.5 million units. Xiaomi, which is ranked fourth for shipments in China as of June, reported no growth year-on-year in the second quarter, with flat market share of 14 per cent, according to Canalys. It has expanded successfully into the US$500+ segment with its latest flagship models and continues to erode market share of its direct competitors in the low-cost segment, such as Xiaomi," said Jia. Although the overall market has started picking up from the bottom, smaller brands have been edged out of the picture further with the top four Chinese brands expanding their dominance in the world's largest smartphone market. The Canalys report did not specify Apple's market share, putting the Cupertino, California-based technology giant into the category of "smaller vendors" in China.

Thankfully for Apple, 2018 has started strong, with sales in the first quarter of 2018 increasing by 2.8 percent over the previous year. But how likely is it that Huawei will be able to achieve sales of 200 million in 2018?
