Oh Yes, Samsung will move back very soon because all they care most are the flagship phones. They don't do great work on the mid-range. And when they do too the price is very high forgetting there are many great options of phones for lower prices.

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2017Sad to see Micromax completely disappear. I smell Nokia to reach top 3 at least next year.Micromax mobiles are either a re brand or assemble parts from China any way?

It's nice to see that people in other countries do tend to buy into the competition as well. Over here at my place the market is 45% apple 45% samsung 10% shared by htc/Sony/Huawei.

Devices from Apple, Sony and htc appeal to a niche. Those people won't buy this junk anyway and they are not concerned about how many devices these 3rd grade Chinese companies sell. Use a Chinese phone and then a phone from these reputed manufactures and it immediately becomes apparent why they sell these devices at dirt cheap rates here. I for one, don't even glance at their product pages on amazon or flipkart. If I am low on budget, I prefer to postpone my plan of buying a new phone than to buy this one plus, oppo, vivo or such other worthless piece of cr@p.

Great achievement by samsung, oppo and vivo becoming topsepsellers with mediocre overpriced phones.
Any company can become top seller by selling best for cheapest cost.
For lenovo, there were no launch in that period. That share was only from Moto G5 plus sale figures only.
Hope K7 note acheive better

First of all, as almost usual, well done to Samsung for leading the Indian market (in this case). But to Xiaomi as well for the second place and to the others consecutively. Additionally, within a month or so, maybe we'll even see a little increasing, etc. Because Samsung will launch the Note 8 and so most probably it will keep holding the flagship segment, but on the other hand, Lenovo will launch the K7 Note, and then after a while or so, Xiaomi will launch the Redmi Note 5, and maybe even the Redmi Pro 2, so probably they will keep holding their respective positions, and probable increasing even more. But then, as far as tough competition goes, it will be the turn of Vivo and Oppo, etc., to do something in regard, the mid- range (& premium) and entry level too. We'll see then (interesting).

And still no real flagships being released here like Xiaomi's Mi Note 2 and Mi Max and its future Mi Note sequels as said by Hugo Barra about our country not being able to afford them or being poor. Same goes for ViVo's Xplay series when Shen wei said they won't be released here in india but instead we're being treated to a multitude of "selfie" low to mid range smartphones.
