iPhone\u00a0<\/a>shipments surged 20% in China in the first quarter, \u200bfor the strongest growth among major vendors, despite an overall decline \u200cas\u00a0rising prices of memory chips boosted costs, data from Counterpoint Research showed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall smartphone shipments dropped 4% in the world’s largest smartphone market in the period from January \u200bto March, hit by supply chain disruptions and the soaring chip \u200bprices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But telecoms giant Huawei and Apple, the two largest vendors in the market, \u2060bucked the trend, reporting growth of 2%<\/a> and 20% respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As most rivals \u200braise prices, Apple stands out for value, with Chinese consumers knowing its products \u200blast at least three years,” Ivan Lam, senior analyst at Counterpoint Research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huawei’s shipments were lifted by strong demand across both its high-end and budget ranges, including the Enjoy 90 \u200bseries, giving it a 20% market share in the quarter, Lam said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huawei \u200bretained the top spot, followed by Apple with a share of 19%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smartphone vendors in China \u200chave \u2060raised prices for budget handsets to protect margins in the battle with elevated memory chip costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Xiaomi slipped to sixth place with a plunge of 35% in shipments. Lam attributed the sharp decline to a high base effect, after \u200bXiaomi benefited from \u200baggressive price cuts \u2060and government subsidies in the corresponding period last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shipments by Oppo and Honor also fell 5% and 3% respectively, \u200bthough Vivo saw a rise of 2%, buoyed by \u200bstrong sales \u2060during the Lunar New Year holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lam expected more headwinds for the market in the second quarter, particularly as Chinese brands look to raise prices further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“However, we \u2060expect Apple \u200band Huawei to fare relatively better, with \u200bHuawei potentially seeing further shipment growth driven by solid demand for its lower-end devices,” Lam said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
