    Inflation is primary reason for these sales declines. Secondary reason could be not much changes in hardware capability of phones.

      The "losers" are the brands that releasing the same phone with different name every 6 months yet failed to deliver regular update to the software..

                      It will be 5 years to replace old phone....
                      Phones all same and capable daily tasks.
                      no need to change

                        Glad to know it.
                        I hope it will keep declining.
                        More people try to keep their phones as long as possible, reducing electronic waste.

                          Manufacturers - Keep removing useful features like headphone jack, micro SD and charger in box while increasing prices

                          Also Manufactures - Why is no one buying our overpriced crap..? 😕😕

                            While Apple is improving in the premium segment.

                            No wonder, no matter what ever 8+ gen 1.. it still lose to A15 chipset.

                            A15 can run Genshin at 10fps better than nowadays 8+ gen 1, at much much lower battery drain.

                            Why buy a large midranger, or high end flagship when a A15 can defeat them all?

                              Proof ? Only Apple and Samsung have increasing worldwide marketshare compared to last year.

                                  Most of samsung user here dont need to buy new phone for the next 2-3 years because still getting updates until the end of 4th year (End of 5th year on newer models)

                                  My Galaxy A51 from 2019 will get Android 13/One UI 5 next year, and i would definitely pick samsung phone again as my next new phone.
