Xiaomi topples Samsung to become world’s biggest smartphone brand in June

As Xiaomi gears up for the launch of its flagship smartphone lineup and other products including the Mi Pad 5 series on August 10, the Chinese smartphone maker has got one more reason to rejoice.

The company had recently outnumbered Apple as the second-biggest smartphone maker globally and has now raced on to reach the milestone of becoming the global leader by dethroning Samsung.

According to Counterpoint research’s data, Xiaomi has been able to capture 17.1 per cent of the global smartphone market, overtaking Samsung, which had a 15.7 per cent market share.

Though these numbers are for July 2021, Xiaomi’s meteoric rise means that Apple is now pushed to the third position with a market share of just 14.3%, which is marginally higher than what it was back in 2015. Interestingly, Xiaomi had just a 5.2% share while Samsung had close to 22% market share six years back.
