An expansive report from Counterpoint Research revealed that Apple accounted for a whopping 42% of all smartphone sales (estimated at $ 113 billion) in Q1 2021, though only 16.8% of all global shipments.
A year earlier, when the COVID-19 pandemic began to spread around the world, Apple shipped 13.6% of all smartphones and generated 34.4% of sales.
This could be attributed to the success of the iPhone 12 series and delayed launch demand in the fourth quarter of 2020, Counterpoint said. Apple's revenue share, thanks to strong operations in both Europe and the United States.

Samsung is in second place when it comes to smartphone revenue, with 17.5%. This is also impressive, but down from the 20.2% it hit in Q1 2020.
Interestingly, Samsung's share of shipped shipments increased from 19.9% a year ago to 21.7%, according to data shared by Counterpoint. That shows Samsung's mid-range and low-cost Galaxy A devices take a higher share of the shipments this year.
