The Apple iPhone 13 has apparently become the most popular smartphone in the Indian market in the fourth and final quarter of last year. The company’s 2021 iPhone model was the best selling model in the region during this period, so here are all the details.
The news arrives from known analytics & market researched based firm Counterpoint Research. During Q4 2022, the iPhone 13 was one of the best deals for a premium grade handset thanks to attractive promotional sales. Between the October to December period, the Indian market saw festive sales with the Dussera and Diwali festivals taking center stage. Major e-commerce platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, Croma, and others were offering great discounts on various products like smartphones.
During this time, iPhone 13 was quite popular in the market, with the base 2022 iPhone model alone capturing a 4 percent market share during the sales period. Similarly, the Samsung Galaxy M13, Samsung Galaxy A04s, Realme C35, and the Redmi A1 also accounted for a 3 percent market share in Q4 2022. Regardless, it is still quite interesting to find an iPhone model, which isn’t exactly out of date, topping the list considering how the budget to mid range segment is the most popular in the region.
For those unaware, the iPhone 13 was being offered on sale for a price tag as low as 50,000 INR (roughly 610 US Dollars) on Flipkart and Croma. This deal basically propelled the sales of this model. The other top five best selling smartphones were the Realme C11, Oppo A54, Samsung Galaxy M12, Redmi Note 10s, and Redmi 9A. However, all of these models were priced under the 15,000 INR category.
