        How many were bought by companies? Did you ever see a givaway on where they give the Redmi to the winner?no?only Iphones and Samsungs you say?
        All the companies buying the most expensive phones to play with their taxes you say?the higher the price the better?
        Then we get the carrier deals, the trade ins, the whatevers...

        Like always this is just marketing/propaganda.

        Without real details this is meaningless.

        And the fact that the Samsung A15 made the top 10 should tell you most people buy cheap phones cause off course they do, most people are not millionaires

        But a top 10 chart where all phones are 300€ and lower would not be good for business so we get this marketing charts

        If they really told us what people were buying and at what price you would see a lot of companies losing stock value really fast

I don't care about headphone jack. sometimes it's really want but sometimes it's annoying because of the long wire. So i prefer bluetooth.

                    It appears that several individuals are having difficulty acknowledging the fact that Samsung's mobile devices have achieved the highest sales volume.

                        The Albion, 07 Jun 2024Explain why, in coherent English. You can't, can you ?Try giving Carphone Warehouse a call and ask them how many phones they've sold by model and brand. These numbers are about as scientific as a magic 8-ball.

                          Those numbers arent accurate or arent the way they it should be in other words this aint fair for every brand.

                          What i really want to say make all phone from all brands available for sale in every region, country at every shop, vendor, stall, mall etc.
                          Then and only then we will see which brand is best selling brand and best seller.
                          Honestly it wont be Samsung nor Apple for a very single reason.
                          Most other competitors for a much less price can output a lot better device.
                          maybe with only 1-2 years of updates maybe no updates at all but who cares.
                          Some people never updating their phones and phone works without issues very long time.

                                      4G phones took 3 of the top 10 places this year, compared to 1 last year. Possibly, people don’t want or can’t to spend as much money on phones or people don’t care about 5G or both.
