How many smartphones were sold worldwide in May?

According to Counterpoint Research, global smartphone sales fell year-on-year in May.

They totaled 96 million units. This is 4% less than in April and 10% less than in May 2021. It is noteworthy that this figure has dropped below 100 million units for the specified period for the second time in the last ten years. It is noteworthy that the previous minimum was observed during the pandemic.

Overall, despite a strong recovery after the first wave of COVID-19 in 2020, smartphone sales still haven’t returned to pre-pandemic levels. Supply chains are stabilizing, but rising inflation, manufacturing slowdown in China and the war in Ukraine are the main factors limiting smartphone demand. Currently, suppliers are stocking up due to reduced demand.
