Samsung held on to its global smartphone crown with a 20 percent market share, but its 72.3 million units shipped during the quarter is a 13 percent drop from the previous year's quarter. Strategy Samsung is being squeezed in the huge China and India markets by Huawei, Xiaomi and other Chinese rivals -- a problem the company needs to solve "before it's too late," Strategy Analytics said.

Highlighting Samsung's problem, No. 2 Huawei's shipments increased 32 percent annually to nearly 52 million smartphones in the quarter. The company's Android phones have little presence in North America but are "wildly popular" in the rest of the world, garnering a 14 percent market share, Strategy Analytics said.
