Xiaomi has been one of the most popular mobile brands in Spain almost since its birth. However, Samsung has managed to surpass the Chinese manufacturer and has established itself as the favorite brand of the Spanish. In fact, these changes in the popularity of mobile brands have been published by Canalys, a consulting company.
Take into account that Canalys does quarterly market analysis and its latest report has indicated that Samsung has surpassed the popularity of Xiaomi in Spain. However, you can rest easy because here we will also explain what are the other 3 mobile brands that compete with Samsung and Xiaomi.
No more Xiaomi, now Samsung is the favorite mobile brand of the Spanish
The data reflected in the Canalys report is based on the information collected in the first quarter of the year 2022. According to the Canalys report, Samsung has surpassed Xiaomi, who was the first on the list until a few months ago . In fact, Samsung now has 33% of the market share in Spain and has grown by 8%, while Xiaomi has a market share of 29% and its growth has decreased by 26%.
It is possible that the loss of popularity that Xiaomi has had is due to the fact that this brand also slows down its mobiles. In any case, the strong point of Xiaomi mobiles is how affordable they are and the best example is this high-end Xiaomi that you can buy for almost €250.
For its part, Apple is in third place in the list of mobile brands with the largest market share in Spain. In fact, Apple maintains a 15% market share and has grown by 14% .
Now, in fourth place is OPPO, which has a 7% market share , although its popularity has decreased by 37%. Finally, fifth place on the list made by Canalys is occupied by Realme, which has a 5% market share and is the brand that has had the most growth, as it has reached 223%.
Now, the report made by Canalys leaves us with some doubts about Xiaomi mobiles. For example, are Xiaomi phones better than iPhones? Or even, should Xiaomi be just as expensive as Samsung? Tell us your opinion about it.
