        Year-to-year drop in growth is actually not that significant considering that smartphone market is matured now. Now, new smartphone sell is mostly contributed by those looking to replace older models and a smartphone can easily last somebody 2-3 years.
        In another words, the year-to-year growth will rise this year.

                Smartphones are getting boring anyway. Their ever increasing prices aren't helping either.

                  What goes up has to go back down! Simple logic

                    Oppo, Vivo and OP are siblings.
                    OP makes the flagships.
