Unlike other major markets around the world, like China, India or Europe, which have seen a number of different companies rise and fall from leading positions over the past few years, North America remains under the tight control of a single smartphone supplier.<\/p>\n
Smaller market, weaker leaders<\/h2>\nYes, US smartphone shipments as a whole have declined again, this time from 32.5 million units in the third quarter of 2022 to 31 million between July and September of this year. That’s at least according to latest Canalys estimates<\/a>the market research company having already discovered that global sales fell only 1 percent<\/a> from the third calendar quarter of last year to the same period of 2023.<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"New](\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/New-US-smartphone-market-report-details-Apple-and-Samsungs-struggles.jpg\")
