According to Counterpoint Research, Apple and Samsung dominated the top 10 best-selling smartphones list for Q1, each grabbing five positions and leaving no spot for other brands.

As per the analysts, the strong performance of the S24 series can be attributed to Samsung's early refresh of the series, and its efforts in generative AI (GenAI) technology. "The S24 series was the first to reach the market with GenAI features and capabilities, allowing users to create unique content and experience a new level of interaction with their smartphones," the analysts stated.

This was also the first quarter in which the top 10 smartphones were all 5G capable. The analysts expect that the top 10 best-selling smartphones will capture a larger share of total smartphone sales in the coming time as OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) are focusing on leaner portfolios with premium features, including GenAI.
