                  62% increase in iPhone sales, but 53% FALL for Samsung. Whatever Samsung's doing, it's not working.

Whats the use of stock inventory control personnel or purchasing officer? So you made a research proving Xiaomi sold 30% more than apple?

                      Hilarious people rushing to proclaim iphone as the top seller in China. This is just Q1 result in which the iphone had no competition. When the S6 and Xiaomi's Note pro is tabulated it'll change dramatically.

                        Its great,

                          People around the world always pay for quality. Apple sells many smartphone in China although the iPhone is by far the most expensive one.

                              Smartphones are becoming saturated in China so most users are upgrading their starter phone to highend models such as iPhone and the increasing better build Xiaomi, Lenovo, Huawei.

                              Generally the more saturated a market is with smartphones, there will be a higher percentage of iPhone. US, UK and Japan, Korea comes to mind and China is joining them.

                                      Chinese people are getting rich.
                                      If there's no poor people to pay meager wages to, no more cheap stuff made there. If no more cheap stuff made there, economy will recede.
