“Apple” overtook rival “Samsung” in smartphone sales in 2023, according to research firm IDC, which saw it as a shift in power at the top of the largest consumer electronics market. The last time a company other than Samsung took first place in the smartphone market was in 2010.
The California-based group sold more than 234 million “iPhones” last year, bringing its global market share to 20.1 percent. “Apple” for the first time captured the largest share of this market, and it is the only company in the top three to achieve positive annual growth of 3.7 percent.
