It can do good in benchmarks big whoop. the fact that it runs iOS already makes it a no go for anybody who wants an ounce of control over customization or modding. iOS can't even set default apps, which is a HUGE flaw in the software design.

        Anonymous, 26 Dec 2019what's your point ? oppo a9 was released in the same month ... moreWhat's your point? A9 released 9 days earlier, so it had over a week more sales. and it's also phone from very different price point.

        Also why you first compare iPhones and then mix other phones there as well which is irrelevant for the subject.

            Logically XR is on top because iPhone 11 only had around week of sales for this list.

            Next Q XR won't be in top, it's going to be iPhone 11

                ASUS ROG Phone 3, 26 Dec 2019Cheapest iPhone! So iPhone 11s are poor sellersLol, let’s get this straight kiddo, the iPhone 11 launched on 20th September, the end of Q3 IS SEPTEMBER, that means in the space of just 10 days the iPhone 11 managed to get into the top selling smartphones list, IN 10 DAYS! Let that sink in you illiterate! The iPhone 11 managed to beat most Androids that had a whole 3 months to sell, it managed to make up those sales in 10 days.

                Go make excuses for your cesspool Androids. :’D

                    You can get the XR in NEW for just 549. Some can sell at 500. I agree that it's still bit pricey. But still. It gets wireless charging, ip rating, stereo speaker, camera that works and shot well, iOS and most importantly, it works for another 3 years. At least it will still get iOS 16.

                                        imo XR is most beautiful Apple device at this moment and last year , iPhone 8 with 1 camera is good too then 8 Plus , and 11 Pro Max is ugly , btw After Apple , Huawei has best Flagship sell in one model , Huawei wasn't part of this list as they sell different devices but this time they have a model among best 10 , maybe Samsung sell different flagship and single model Apple and then Huawei are bests , while P30 lack OIS in main camera , but probably they will have their sell same in china only , especially for their flagships , P40 and P40 Pro , A10 sell much and A20 , A30 Replaced by 20 at the list i saw for first half sells , i love this kinds of stats.
