Abstract

Chinese smartphone brands shipped approximately 152 million smartphones in the third quarter of 2023. Regarding market concentration, the top three brands, Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo, experienced a decline in shipments compared to the previous quarter, and other manufacturers like Transsion, Honor, Lenovo, and Huawei saw an increase in shipments for the quarter.

As a result, the market share of the top three brands decreased to 56.7% compared to the previous 60.4%.

For the fourth quarter, China's smartphone shipments will likely continue to enjoy a quarterly and annual growth of 6-7% as channel operators have built up inventory to meet demand for the Single's Day shopping festivals, and the overseas market will continue to gain momentum.
