Samsung has zipped past Apple to retake its spot as the leader of the global smartphone market. This happened after Apple’s 3-month reign, showing how successful the Cupertino tech company was its iPhone 12 launch. Samsung's worldwide shipments increased 29.2 percent in contrast to its shipments from last year’s first 3 months.

The Korean-based company launched its Galaxy S21 flagship series at the start of 2021 as well as its mid-range Galaxy A line during the later months. This helped the company’s shipments rose on an annual basis from 58.9 million to 76.1 million units, according to the latest data from Omdia.
