In India, Samsung is making big moves. For starters, the market is stronger in India when it comes to smartphone growth, as shipments grew 17% in Q2 2016 compared to the same quarter a year ago. Conversely, the rest of the world is expected to grow just 3% to 4% this year.
Samsung garnered more than 25% of the Indian smartphone market last quarter, the most of any smartphone maker. This is up 15% year-over-year and 10.9% sequentially. For its part, Apple didn’t even show up on the list by the IDC.
