Apple is now China's top mobile brand

While iOS may not be the leading OS in China, Apple is China's leading device manufacturer and accounts for the largest share of monthly active devices in the region, according to Newzoo.

Android accounts for 74% of active devices in the Chinese smartphone market, leaving the iOS ecosystem with just a 26% share.

Yet, Apple iPhones and iPads represent 25.6% of monthly active mobile devices in China, well above that of its closest rivals OPPO, Huawei, Vivo, and Xiaomi at 17.9%, 14.1%, 13.9%, and 12.3%, respectively.

The prominence of Apple iPhones and iPads in China highlights the fragmentation among the Android ecosystem.

BI Intelligence analyst Rayna Hollander has the full story.
