Sell-through was slightly up over May. This is mainly because of new model launches by many Chinese players. However, this was offset by sell-through volume lower in Japan, Spain, UK, Korea compared to last month. The US was up slightly. Overall sell-in was slightly up MoM. We saw a slight uptick in China, Germany and Australia sequentially.
Huawei saw healthy growth (+49% YoY) in overall sell-through volumes. P20 series did exceptionally well, crossing five million during the month. Xiaomi grew 21% YoY after its product refresh in China. Apple’s domination continues in ultra-premium tier ($800 and above) with iPhone X. Samsung’s sell-through volume was down due to its weak performance in the feature phone segment – notably in India where Samsung is losing out to Jio. Nevertheless, Reliance Jio’s sell-through was slightly weak compared to the previous month.
