Counterpoint Research has just revealed some numbers for South Korea, and according to the report, Apple has broken records, even in Samsung’s turf. Apple reportedly owned 33% of the market share between October and November, and Samsung remained with a 46%. Obviously these were the months when the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus launched, so that could have a lot to do with the growth in sales. What’s most shocking about these news is that the report claims that this is the first time that any foreign company earns more than 20% in market share.
Apple has done a good job in selling the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus over the last couple of quarters. Let’s see how long these records last.
