The Samsung Galaxy S9 and Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus are beautiful and capable devices. Released only in March 2018, they missed much of quarter one. It is no surprise that they are selling in droves and have beaten Apple’s iPhone X back in the market.

Xiaomi narrowly missed the top 5 spots, but make a showing in the 6th and 8th positions with the Redmi 5A and Redmi 5 Plus respectively.

Xiaomi is definitely proving to be a solid brand to watch in the smartphone market. The brand has sustained its tempo over the years and is now rubbing shoulders with the top selling brands in the world. The Xiaomi Redmi 5A was in 5th place in Q1 2018.
