On October 27, IT Home reported that Canalys released a report today that in the third quarter of 2022, the smartphone market in Chinese Mainland improved slightly compared with the second quarter, with 70 million units shipped. However, the market remained at a low level, down 11% year on year. The report points out that vivo and OPPO achieved a month on month growth after optimizing the inventory level in the first half of the year. In the third quarter of 2022, the top five smartphone manufacturers in Chinese Mainland are as follows: Vivo shipped 14.1 million units, ranking first in the market. OPPO (including OnePlus) shipped 12.1 million units, rising to the second place. Due to the lack of new product release, Glory lost its growth momentum since the first half of the year and fell to the third place in the market, shipping 12 million units. Apple ranked fourth with 11.3 million units shipped. Xiaomi's shipment of 9 million units ranked fifth. IT Home learned that Canalys analysts said that Apple achieved significant growth in Chinese Mainland in the third quarter, and the strong demand for the iPhone 14 Pro series contributed to Apple's shipment performance. In addition, Canalys predicts that the smartphone market in Chinese Mainland will be flat in 2023 and slightly recovered in 2022, but still significantly lower than the level in 2021 and before the epidemic, and demand is unlikely to improve before the end of next year. The large number of new iPhones shipped and the arrival of the E-commerce Festival will drive the market performance in the fourth quarter. (Liu Xinshe)
