I have found the following market shares:
Worldwide sales of smartphones:
Samsung 20.9%
Huawei 15.8%
Apple 12.1%
Xiaomi 9.3%
Oppo 8.6%
Other 33.2%
Honor (even if it belongs to Huawei somewhere)
OnePlus or Apple
Yes, that was included in the 15.8% Huawei.
Apple because I have been using an iphone since 3-3.5 and it just fits.
The only thing that is bad for the Iphone is that after about 1-1.5 years the battery gets noticeably worse - in relation to which it discharges much faster.
However, I would not get the newest / most expensive model but just a slightly older z.b a 2017 model which I think should fit about 3.5 years.
Could like to answer me if Samsung batteries are soo bad after about 1 year based on the consumption when it discharges - in a normal Altagsnutzung.
Of course, God's own company, the others are just copies ;-)
I would buy the phone, which most closely matches my expectations. The last time I needed a new phone, that was the Nokia 7 Plus. If I needed a new one, it would probably be the Xiaomi Mi 9T.
As I have always had trouble with the software on my last two devices and find Stock Android actually quite good, I would probably buy the next time a Google Pixel. The current but I do not all say, let's see how the Pixel 4a XL, if that may come next year.
