Across the world, the biggest smartphone manufacturers are Apple (28%), Samsung (24%), Xiaomi (12%), Oppo (6%) and Vivo (5%). However, there are geographic patterns in popularity, with Apple dominating North America and East Asia, while Samsung leads in South America, Europe, Africa and West Asia in addition to its home turf of South Korea. Xiaomi is the most popular phone brand across South Asia, Spain, Venezuela, Ukraine, Madagascar, Kyrgyzstan and Palestine, while Tecno is popular in West and Central Africa. Oppo, Vivo and Huawei lead in Indonesia, Bhutan and Togo respectively.
India and China’s got as much variety as their population it seems. “Other” brands having a higher market share in China than the most used brand is interesting.
Also those colors suck.

Apple domintaing in … Europe
Even your map doesn’t support this claim.
Belarus is marked as a country where Apple dominates, even though this is not true: Redmi (Xiaomi) and Samsung phones are more popular there (link)
And it seems like the situation in Russia is similar: Apple is the 4th most popular brand (2023, link).
Who chose this color scheme? Is that what being colorblind feels like?

Huawei har really taken a nose dive. Good phones, but after the whole debacle, virtually nobody in Western world buys them
