While Samsung continues to be by far the world's leading manufacturer in number of sales, no longer dominates in any of the three most important markets, after giving first place to Xiaomi in China. However, throughout the month of June we have seen how their figures in the United States approached those of Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, thanks to the impact of the Galaxy S5. This is how the North American market is now configured.
Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), rules in the United States, Micromax, in India and Xiaomi, in China. The first is not news, however, the situation of the other two territories is something relatively new; and is that the Galaxy have lost their leadership within the two most populous markets in the world. Anyway, Samsung ranks second in these three countries, being the only manufacturer capable of reaching such a privileged position.
Grows 1,6% in the United States
Both Samsung and Apple grow in the US market, although the rise in the former is Way to old than that of the second, so it manages to cut the difference between the two companies.
Much of the blame for Samsung's improvement is the arrival of the Galaxy S5 to all the major operators in the country, something that has been happening with each passing year. In addition, the next releases of the Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy alpha will provide Samsung with another major boost, but, of course, the iPhone 6 will do the same with Apple.
LG, Motorola and HTC suffer drops
The cross of the coin is for the other big Android manufacturers. HTC and LG lose steam despite recent launches of the HTC One M8 (that in the beginning it wasn't selling badly) And the LG G3.
Motorola, for its part, plans the biggest coup from September 2014 with the arrival of the Moto X + 1. Although it will be interesting to see if the demand continues to be the same after the company ceases to belong to Google to pass to Lenovo.
