Same time iPhone sales grew 98%. Looks like more and more Indians want iPhone too.

    REDROBOT, 16 Feb 2021Xperia mobiles should launch in india ( quality mobiles) Too expensive. Sony makes good quality phones (I used a Z3 and XA before) but their phones now are overpriced. Indians would go opt for cheaper Xiaomi or Samsung phones that offer similar specs

            Anonymous, 15 Feb 2021Damn. BBK Electronics has 42percent of market share.Realme= online market for performance centric phones
            Vivo= offline market with attractive designs n decent cameras
            Oppo= same as Vivo for mid rangers, n high end flagships.
            Oneplus= all time fav indian brand. That's why they sell lot of phones on just a brand name. Yet der flagships can still be called flagship killers cos of der aggressive pricing in india than d rest of world.

                Samsung has been doing really good in the mid range segment, and now they even have the banger F62. Even realme is performing good.
                Just wish Nokia could do the same😥
                I'd rather buy any of these than some xiaomi/redmi phone.

                    I expect much stronger xiomi india 2021 they will leave everyone in their wake in 2021.

                    Border clash and subsequent sinophobic backlash made Samsung extremely Successful in 2020 Q2,Q3,Q4

                    Now the dust has settled it seems.

                    Also Xiamoi is going to launch the legendary Redmi Note 10 Series and the first OLED Redmi Note soon.
