According to a fresh report from Flurry Analytics, 44% of smartphones activated during the holiday season had the Apple logo on back. Samsung was next, accounting for 21% of holiday phone activations. Huawei and LG were third and fourth with 3% and 2% of activations respectively.
As Flurry points out, this is very unusual since neither of those two manufacturers has a phone listed in the top 35 of activated handsets. All of these calculations were made by Flurry for the week leading to the start of Christmas Day and Chanukah.
