                In USA, Samsung is the #2 and LG the #3. Why don't they get kicked out too?

                  Moj, 07 Jan 2019i really like to see what apple would do to get number 1!It's hard to become number 1 It's really near impossible
                  Like american people prefer buying their own products like iphone and pixel In china they prefer buying chinese products Evrn the goverment encourages at doing this
                  Don't forget that trump banned huawei only because it competes with apple

                    BBK with Oppo, vivo, OnePlus etc. has over 50% of the market but Huawei is market leader with 25%? Nice way to put it. Brands aside, Oppo and vivo are actually the same company. BBK is the leader :-D

                        because manufactures don't bring innovation. newest smartphones are a piece of junk.
                        Not impressive features, they are removing cool features and increasing prices.

                            Chinese companies should really up their profit margins, at least enough to compete with OnePlus, and then add features that OnePlus doesn't have to maybe bring more people over

                              :-) (y) Nothing else to say.

                                Their profit margins are obscene. They need some important price correction.

                                    This makes me excited for what Samsung and Apple have to offer this year. After all, they'll go all out this time around
