Thus, Russia took the eighth place in the ranking of countries in terms of smartphone sales. In total, 2.3% of devices manufactured by the global industry were sold in the Russian Federation. In 2021, Russia took the sixth place in this ranking. Now the country is behind Japan (2.5%) and Mexico (2.8%). In 2022, China still occupies the first place (24.1%). It is followed by India with 12.7% and the USA with 11.9%.
Analysts state that from 2015 to 2022, the Russian market has grown by a third. However, it is necessary to understand that at that time smartphones began to be purchased at the new dollar rate. Experts also explained that the decrease in market share is due to the ban on the supply of Apple and Samsung smartphones in the Russian Federation. In addition, the shift of Russian attention to basic goods was also effective.
