Published Date: Feb 21, 2023

• US smartphone shipments declined YoY for the fifth straight quarter in Q4 2023 despite end-of-year holiday demand. Carriers continued to cite weak upgrade rates and long holding periods as reasons for the underperformance.

• Motorola’s share grew, partially due to some increases in premium devices, especially the RAZR 2023.
• Google’s share declined to 3% as Pixel sales were weaker YoY.
• In “others”, Nokia HMD continued to gain share due to a stronger channel presence in prepaid.

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q2 2022 – Q3 2023)

Published Date: Nov 27, 2023

• US smartphone shipments declined YoY for the fourth straight quarter in Q3 2023 amid weak consumer demand.

• Apple’s iPhone shipments declined 11% YoY, in part due to the later launch date of the iPhone 15 series compared to the iPhone 14 series. Its sales share dropped to 53% in Q3 from 55% in Q2.
• Weak upgrade rates at the carriers were the main source of weak smartphone shipments, signaling that consumers are opting to hold on to their devices for longer.

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q1 2022 – Q2 2023)

Published Date: Aug 17, 2023

• US smartphone shipments declined 24% YoY. Low-end smartphone sale declines were the biggest contributing factor to the downturn.
• Samsung’s shares dropped to 23% as competition from other Android OEMs has increased in the prepaid segment, hurt Samsung’s performance.
• Apple was one of the few OEMs that did not see a shipments drop of double digits YoY. Older iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 devices are helping the OEM attract new customers.
• Google’s share rose to 3% due to the earlier launch of the Pixel 7a compared to its predecessor.
• Motorola grew to 9% share capitalizing on Samsung’s weakness, launching new devices including the G Stylus, G 5G and the new Razr+ in Q2.

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q4 2021 – Q1 2023)

• US smartphone shipments declined 17% YoY in Q1 2023 due to inventory correction and weak consumer demand.
• Apple market share increased to 52% in Q1 2023 from 49% in Q1 2022 as it began aggressively selling iPhone 11 in prepaid channels.
• Samsung Galaxy S23 shipments were up double digits YoY while the Galaxy A14 5G performed exceptionally well in prepaid resulting in 27% share of shipments.
• Lenovo Group (Motorola) and TCL Group saw shipments decline in Q1 but their overall shipment share grew as OEMs like Nokia HMD and white-label devices saw even steeper declines.
• During Q1 2023, carriers reported very low upgrades. We expect the incumbent postpaid players to increase promotional activity during the second half of the year to combat cable MVNOs, which saw higher net additions than the Big 3 during the quarter, a first for the US smartphone market.

  • Smartphone shipments grew 21% YoY in Q2 2021 continuing the positive momentum from Q1. It is likely shipments and growth could have been higher in Q2, but industry wide shortages curtailed this.
  • Apple’s marketshare slightly lowered to 53%, although strong iPhone 12 demand remained. Overall Apple shipments grew 38% YoY. Some shortages of iPhone SE (2020) hindered prepaid growth.
  • Samsung’s share dropped to 26%, but it also had positive YoY growth at 26%. Shortages, especially for A-series devices somewhat stifled Samsung’s growth potential.
  • LG’s share drastically declined in Q2 2021, now at just 3%.
  • Motorola and OnePlus were big gainers in Q2, capitalizing on LG’s weakness, especially in prepaid channels.

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q4 2019 – Q1 2021)

  • Smartphone shipments grew 14% YoY in Q1 2021. Total market volumes were down QoQ, in-line with seasonal trends. Strong YoY growth came from higher than usual demand for premium devices.
  • Apple’s market share remained high at 55% from strong iPhone 12 demand. Supply issues in Q4 2020 pushed demand into Q1. This spiked sales for iPhone 12 devices, which also benefitted from strong postpaid promotions.
  • Samsung grew to 28% share through Samsung’s early launch of the Galaxy S21. Samsung launched its new Galaxy S21 in early February instead of March like in previous years. A-series devices also helped boost Samsung in prepaid channels.
  • LG announced in early April that they would be leaving the smartphone business. We expect this share to decline drastically in Q2 2021

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q2 2019 – Q3 2020)

  • All OEMs were down in Q2 year-over-year. Due to lockdowns, the share of online sales grew to 31% from 14% last year.
  • However, because of a strong online presence, Samsung and Apple volumes fared better than the overall market aided by a higher percentage of online sales.

  • According to Counterpoint’s latest US Channel Share Tracker, Q1 2020 saw a 21% year-over-year (YoY) decline in US smartphone sales driven by store closures and stay-at-home orders in the latter part of the quarter.
  • Apple only declined 13% YoY, which is far better than the other tier one OEMs. Samsung declined 23% YoY.
  • The A-series continued to be a sales driver for the OEM as S20 series sales were off to a weak start due to COVID-19 shutdowns taking affect right as devices hit the market.
  • OnePlus did see growth in the quarter, their sales grew YoY from a small base. OnePlus continues to make inroads into US carrier markets, especially through their competitively priced 5G smartphone offerings.

US Smartphone Shipments Market Data (Q4 2018 – Q4 2019)

  • The US smartphone market declined 1% YoY due to weak upgrades and increase in the average holding periods, especially in the premium segment. Flagship sales have remained sluggish especially for Samsung and LG which faced tough competition from Apple.
  • Apple increased 7% YoY with the help of the new iPhone 11 series. The iPhone 11 was the best selling device for Apple during the quarter.
  • Samsung declined 8% YoY despite recent success of A series. There has been 5G sales, but not enough for OEM to stem the decline in sales year over year.
  • LG declined 24% YoY as flagship sales faltered. The LG V50 was one of the first 5G devices on the market, but is now facing a tough competition from Samsung Note 10 5G.
  • Among the “Others” OnePlus grew 182% YoY from a small base. The OEM has two 5G capable devices in carrier channels currently which has helped it grow.

  • Smartphone volumes fell 2% YoY, from continued weakness of high-end premium Android devices. Mid-tier devices increased in sales but could not offset the premium decline.
  • Apple increased YoY with the help of the new iPhone 11 series. The iPhone 11 quickly became the flagship device of choice for budget conscious Apple fans. Apple continues to make headways with its services expansion, launching Apple TV+.
  • Samsung declines another quarter. The S10 series continues to see weakness in the premium line-up. The Note 10 shows promise and the Note 10 Plus 5G could become a strong 5G seller as carriers are experimenting with different monthly pricing configurations and financing options.
  • Among the “Others” Google Pixel grew 139% YoY as the Pixel 3a and 3a XL are overtaking sales of the Pixel 3. Google will look to the Pixel 4 in Q4 to help boost its premium device sales however early market response for the device seems lackluster.
