China Smartphone Sales Q3 2024: Vivo Leads, Apple Rises to 2nd Place

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – A total of 68.8 million smartphone units were sold in China in the third quarter (Q3) 2024. According to the IDC report, China’s cellphone market recorded growth of 3.2% year-on-year (yoy).

Vivo still consistently occupies first position as the king of Chinese cellphones with sales growth of 21.5% compared to the same period last year.

Apple, which was previously out of the ranks of the ‘Top 5’ Chinese cellphones, has now suddenly risen and taken 2nd place.

Simultaneously, Oppo actually dropped out of the list. In fact, in the IDC report in Q2 2024, Oppo was in 3rd position, even though it experienced a decline of 2.7% compared to Q2 2023.

Meanwhile, Huawei, which occupied 2nd position in Q2, has now been overtaken by Apple and must be willing to be in 3rd position.

Nevertheless, Huawei recorded the largest growth yoy at 42%, quoted from the official IDC website, Tuesday (29/10/2024).

Xiaomi and Honor are in 4th and 5th position respectively. Xiaomi recorded growth of 12.8% yoy, while Honor experienced a decline of 22.5% yoy.

Overall, China’s HP market growth of 3.2% indicates a positive trend for four consecutive quarters.

“Despite economic challenges, consumers are motivated to buy new smartphones after three years of decline,” said senior researcher at IDC China, Arthur Guo.

A Positive Trend, Really?

Overall, the growth of 3.2% in China’s smartphone market proves there’s life left in this tech revolution—despite economic hurdles.

This remarkable comeback underscores the brand’s enduring appeal and strategic maneuvers in the market.

On the other hand, Oppo has faced a significant setback, dropping out of the list of top-selling brands. Just last quarter (Q2 2024), Oppo held the 3rd position, even amid a slight decline of 2.7% compared to Q2 2023, but the current shift highlights the rapid changes in consumer preferences.
