Out of the 11, 6 are Galaxy A series phones, proving Samsung’s made the right move when it redefined its midrange lineup in 2019. A few Galaxy M devices were also a hit this year.
More important, especially in a financial sense, is the fact that Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S10 family was a hit. The Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10e were all among your favorite phones.
Xiaomi is the other big winner with 25% of the top phones, or 5. Its most popular phone of the year was the Redmi Note 7, which was outdone only by Samsung’s most popular Galaxy A50.
Huawei’s P30 Pro and P30 lite were both among the most popular phones of the year, and so was the OnePlus 7 Pro. More interestingly the Nokia 9 PureView is one of the most popular phones of the year as well.
