Apple gains a huge share of smartphone brand switchers, iPhone 13 sales are still robust

Apple is always on the top of the race when it comes to buyers choosing between two smartphone brands. As per new data from US shipper channels, 73% of the agents said that the Cupertino-based tech giant profits the most switchers while only 16% goes to South Korean brand Samsung.

Apple is expected to launch its next-generation flagship iPhone 14 series in September this year.

43% of the agents said that they would switch from Android to iOS on the ground of software while 51% added that the comprehensive rate of switching between the two OS was about even. Only 5% select Android over iOS. This suggests that it is getting a huge share of smartphone brand switchers. The iPhone accounts for a 66% market share for AT&T, 60% at Verizon, and 57% at T-Mobile respectively. This is said to be good than the early years.

The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro series that debuted in October last year are still marketing better than the previous generations of Apple’s smartphones. Unfortunately, the sales numbers remain exotic. Across all shipper channels, the iPhone 13 was the top model with a 25% share in May followed by the iPhone 13 Pro Max with 16% and iPhone 13 Pro with 13%. The iPhone 13 Mini has a 2% share and other iPhones hold 4%. Shipper agents added that the iPhone SE 3 sales were anemic.

The iPhone maker, which is the world’s biggest company by market subsidization, has managed supply-chain challenges such as factory closing and shipping delays brought on by the pandemic better than any of its top associates, accountants said. Apple shares increase about 5% in after-hours dealing, deleting half their losses on the year. The profits came after the company teased its targets for amplified reality.
