Samsung Leads Q3 Global Smartphone Shipments, Apple Beats Xiaomi Amid Market Slowdown: IDC

IDC reported that despite the overall decline in shipments, Samsung continued to dominate the global smartphone market in the third quarter. It is said that the South Korean technology giant shipped 69 million mobile phones in the third quarter to secure a 20.8% market share. New data shows that global smartphone shipments fell by 6.7% year-on-year.

Although Samsung has the largest market share, its shipments have fallen by 14.2% year-on-year. According to reports, Apple surpassed Xiaomi to occupy the second place in the global smartphone market and witnessed the largest year-on-year growth of 20.8%. IDC’s third quarter report on global smartphone shipments in 2021 shows that the double-digit growth at the beginning of the quarter has now ended. This decline is mainly due to the supply chain and component shortages faced by the industry.

Samsung’s shipments dropped from 80.4 million units in the third quarter of 2020 to 60.9 million units in the third quarter of 2021. Its market share dropped from 22.7% to 20.8% year-on-year, and its year-on-year growth dropped by 14.2%. Xiaomi slipped to third place, with shipments falling from 46.5 million units in the third quarter of 2020 to 44.3 million units in the same period this year. According to IDC’s data, the 4.6% year-on-year decrease is proof.

According to IDC data, Apple shipped 50.4 million units in the third quarter of this year, compared with 41.7 million units in the same period last year, ranking second. According to reports, its market share has increased significantly from 11.7% in the third quarter of 2020 to 15.2% in the third quarter of 2021. According to reports, Vivo and Oppo shipped 33.3 million and 33.2 million smartphones in the third quarter of 2021, respectively.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026.
