Apple iPhone sales in China plummet 24% as Huawei smartphone sales surge

Apple Inc. is facing a challenging start to the year as its iPhone sales in China dropped by a significant 24% year-over-year in the first six weeks, according to a report by research firm Counterpoint. This decline can mainly be attributed to tough competition in the market, particularly from China’s Huawei, which experienced a notable 64% surge in smartphone sales during the same period compared to the previous year.
