Apple will put on a really big show on Wednesday for its really big next-gen iPhones, but just how big is the iPhone?
Really really big, in the estimation of research company Strategy Analytics. The company released these second-quarter statistics to make you think:
Global: Apple is the No. 2 smartphone vendor globally, capturing a 14 percent share of all smartphones shipped worldwide in the second quarter;
U.S. It captured a 32 percent share of all smartphones shipped in the U.S. in the second quarter.
China: Apple is the No. 3 smartphone vendor in China, capturing a 9 percent share of all smartphones shipped in China in the quarter.
Global Shipments By Model: The 4.7-inch Apple iPhone 6 is the world’s best-selling smartphone model, capturing a 10 percent share of all smartphones shipped worldwide in the quarter. More people buy Apple’s iPhone 6 than any other smartphone model on Earth, Strategy Analytics said.
