A few days ago, we discussed how the iPhone 7 had become Apple's best-selling smartphone during the last quarter that includes the months of July to September, ranking above the iPhone 8, the new generation of the iPhone along with the X model, which were usually always the best-selling models in the third quarter of the year even if they had only been on the market for a few days. It seems that it is not the only country where the iPhone 7 is surpassing the iPhone 8 in sales, since more of the same has happened in the UK.
But despite the words of Tim Cook in the last conference in which the company reported the quarterly results, in which he claimed that sales have exceeded all expectations, obviously He was not referring to the new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.
According to the latest sales report published by Parv Sharma, Apple has again led the sales of smartphones in the United Kingdom obtaining a market share of 34,4%, while its main rival, the Korean Samsung, remains at 4 tenths, with a 34% share of sales.
If we break down sales by device, we see how the iPhone 7 represents 15% of total smartphone sales in the last quarter. Samsung's Galaxy S8 represents 9% while the Galaxy S8 Plus 6% and the Galaxy J3 another 6%. These data reflect how Samsung is the company that has sold the most smartphones in the last quarter in the United Kingdom.
In third position we find the Chinese firm Huawei, confirming the spectacular growth that the company has been having in recent years, followed by Alcatel and Motorola. Closing the ranking of best-selling smartphones in the third quarter of 2017 in the United Kingdom we find the Huawei P10 Lite with 4% of total sales.
