The iPhone 13 was the third best-selling smartphone of 2021 despite only being on sale for three months, so it’ll come as no surprise to hear that Apple’s device is off to an extremely strong start in 2022.
The iPhone 13 dominates the smartphone market
Analyst Francisco Jeronimo of IDC reports that Apple’s iPhone 13 was the best-selling smartphone worldwide in the quarter ending March 2022. That’s despite the serious supply issues that Apple faced during that time.
IDC chose not to reveal the total number of units sold. It didn’t disclose the phone’s individual market share either. But the iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 were the best-selling phones of 2021 and 2020 respectively, so the iPhone 13’s strong start was expected.
