Huawei Surpasses Xiaomi to Become Top Selling Brand in China

Huawei Surpasses Xiaomi to Become Top Selling Brand in China
Oct 26, 2015 By eChinacities.com

Huawei is currently the top selling phone company in the Chinese market, beating out Xiaomi in the third quarter, according to PCWorld.

Domestic Huawei shipments grew 81 percent in the third quarter, which ended September 30, reported market research firm Canalys. The firm plans to release a more detailed report at the end of the month.

In the same quarter, Xiaomi’s domestic sales declined. As a result, Huawai can now claim the title of the largest smartphone manufacturer within the largest market in the world. 

In the past few years, Xiaomi’s cheap models and savvy social media campaigns led to its dominance over the Chinese smartphone market. However, as the Chinese mobile phone market matures, higher end brands like Huawei and ZTE have become more popular.

This year, Huawei has launched several popular smartphones in the Chinese market including the P8 and Mate S.

This is probably due to the fact that xiaomi products break after a few weeks and Huawei products don't.

I have the opposite opinion. I've had a xiaomi phone for 2 years and xiaomi TV for over a year. Both are great. I guess I have been lucky,
