Huawei became the biggest smartphone vendor in China in the third quarter, according to estimates from research firm Canalys, unseating the dominant Xiaomi from the top spot.

It’s the first time Huawei has taken the No. 1 position and comes at a challenging time for vendors targeting Chinese consumers. The country is now saturated with smartphones and the market for such devices has been slowing since earlier this year.

“Huawei’s ascent to China’s smartphone throne is a remarkable feat, especially in the context of an increasingly cutthroat and maturing Chinese smartphone market,” according to Canalys analyst Jessie Ding.

Xiaomi is meanwhile “under tremendous pressure” to reach its worldwide target of selling 80 million smartphones in 2015. To do so it has to ramp up sales in markets outside of China, in particular in India and Brazil. They have also enlisted distributors, Mobile In Africa Ltd to expand their reach to Africa.

Next quarter results will surpass Huawei.

Xiaomi mi 4c is really hot and Xiaomi will sell millions of mi 4c.

Just relax and watch Xiaomi bounce back. The main reason is because Huawei sell phone in almost all country while Xiaomi is still trying to expand.


Huawei phones are unnecessary expensive.
