Chinese smartphones are better day by day and some of companies from this country have the high position in the market at this time. In the recent list of top 12 best selling smartphones, 8 of 12 positions belong to those phones from China.
Best selling smartphones: Chinese phones rule the list
Not only in domestic market, Chinese smartphone companies also rule in the international markets like India. Huawei – one of the biggest brand in China- is a typical example. In the last few years, this Chinese company has given its best shot and become one the largest smartphone companies of the world. However, it just the 3rd largest smartphone, because the top two positions belong to Samsung and Apple. These companies lead the charge of the best selling smartphones in Q1 2016.
And recently, IC Insights- an industry tracker- has just given the report of best worldwide smartphone sales leaders in Q1 2016. And it’s not a surprise when 8 out of the 12 companies are Chinese brands. Those companies take the 3rd place to 6th position and from 8th position to 11th place. The 7th and 12sc places belong to LG (Korea) and Micromax (India). The final position in this top 12 could have gone to another Chinese manufacturer – Gionee. This company shipped 4.8 million smartphones in the 1st quarter this year, just missing 200.000 units compared to India brands – Micromax.
Next, the 4th place goes to Oppo while Xiaomi and Vivo take the 5th and 6th spot. Finally, ZTE, Lenovo, TCL, Meizu are standing in the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th position respectively. Lenovo seems like to lose its spot when its growth rate decreased 26%. In the contrast, Oppo raises to the 4th place with the growth rate increasing up to 54%. Compared to the top 12 last year, Sony, Coolpad, and Microsoft are out of the list of top 12 best selling smartphones. As they only sold 3.4 million, 4 million and 2.3 million smartphones in the Q1 of 2016.
LeEco: a potential nominee next year
Chinese smartphone companies are gradually taking the other brands down. With strong specs and competitive prices, the Chinese smartphones are expected to continue ruling the list in the upcoming years. LeEco is a potential brand who is gaining market shares in China and India as well. We think that this one can be on the list next year.

New 4GB RAM Flagship War: Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro vs Xiaomi Mi5 Pro vs Huawei P9 Max
This month is so busy but we love it since many 4GB RAM smartphones are on sale, including Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016), Xiaomi Mi5 Pro, and Huawei P9 Max. Let’s see how they can compete in the following comparison!
Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro vs Xiaomi Mi5 Pro vs Huawei P9 Max: Awesome 4GB RAM Flagship War

Looking at the table, we can notice the phones’ similarities easily. For example, all of them have the same powerful 4GB RAM, the latest Android Marshmallow OS, fantastic camera combos, dual SIMs, and fingerprint scanners. Though, there are also many important differences we need to note. First of all, it is display. Both Huawei P9 Max and Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro are big phablets with around 6.0-inch screens. But if you prefer something handier, Xiaomi Mi5 Pro is the perfect choice. In terms of resolution, P9 Max is definitely the winner thanks to sporting 2K res.
As for processor, we think Snapdragon 652, Snapdragon 820 and Kirin 950 are all strong to perform any task you want, yet the SD820 can slightly have advantages. About ROM capacity, the Mi5 Pro is the champion once again, up to 128GB of internal storage. However, it does not support a microSD card slot to expand the memory. Anyway, we guess 128GB is already much enough for everything. Do you agree?
In the final paragraph, we would like to talk about battery and camera. No doubt the A9 Pro is the best here because of its massive 5,000mAh cell. You can use the phone in more than 3 days. So cool, rite?! And for main camera, both A9 Pro and Mi5 Pro own 16MP shooters which are great, yet we think the P9 Max’s dual 12MP rear snapper is more special. On the orther hand, when it comes to selfies, we cannot tell you exactly which one is the strongest. Although P9 Max and A9 Pro have 8MP sensors which surely can produce gorgeous pics of yourself, the Mi5 Pro’s 4MP UltraPixel sensor is not something they should look down on. Mi5 Pro’s secondary snapper can totally bring high-res selfies with high contrast and pleasant colors. So, in the end, it is pretty hard for us to pick out the winner. Can you help us?
Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro vs Xiaomi Mi5 Pro vs Huawei P9 Max: Price and availability
As you know, Galaxy A9 Pro and Mi5 Pro and Huawei P9 Max have been announced recently. Anyhow, their costs have already been unveiled: Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro price is $540; Xiaomi Mi5 Pro price is $415; and Huawei P9 Max price will be around $700. The Mi5 Pro is the most affordable here and its hardware is also powerful excellent. Then, we would like to choose it as the champion today. What’s your thinking?
