Apple overtakes Samsung in Q4 2016

According to the latest reports and analysis Apple overtook Samsung company in terms of sale and market share in the 4th quarter of 2016. Apple became the world's largest smartphone vendor in Q4 2016, kicking away Samsung.

Considering the result Apple sold nearly around 439 million units.

Strategy Analytics , an independent research firm confirmed that the smartphone shipment and sales grew by 3 % globally. According to the firm around 1.5 billion units were shipped in year 2016.

Apple managed to jump over Samsung in terms of sales in Q4 2016 by shipping around 78.3 Millon units worldwide which is approximately 800,000 more units than Samsung shipped during Q4 2016.

Apple managed to regain top place in charts by retaining 18 % global share in the market.

Apple raised it's bar by increasing it's share by 5% from 74.8 million. All this happened because of the silly mistake done by Samsung. By saying silly mistake I'm talking about Samsung's Note 7 battery botch. Samsung's Note 7 battery failure caused company a dip of 5% in their market share to 77.5 % which was previously 81.3 million according to the records of sales of Q4 2015.

Somehow Samsung managed to hold 1st position if considered annually , despite of the Q4 2016 results which was favoured to Apple. Huawei managed to hold the 3rd position, and 4th position is acquired by OPPO.

Stay tuned for more . :)
