When someone talks about the brands (品牌) of the smart phones in the world, which brand will you think of?Most people will think about Apple, but now in China and even in the world, Huawei is a wonder (奇迹).
Although it started producing mobile phones not many years ago, it has become one of the most famous phone companies. Now Huawei has got third place at the mobile market, just following Apple and Samsung. After seeing more of its smart phones were sold last year, Huawei appears to be more confident in its bigger goals. "We hope that in three years our market are can be the top two and in five years our marketsharecan be the top one". Richard Yi, CEO of Huawei's Consumer Business Group, said in a recent TV interview.
The company sold 140 million smart phones in 2020. Compared (对比) with 2019, the number increased by (增加了) 40 percent, though it was much smaller than Apple's 207 million iPhones and Samsung's 255 million smart phones. "The number of our smart phones is still growing, " Yu said, "and our company is expecting an increase of 30% in smart phone shipments (出货量). It'll be a great success. "
Although Huawei's smart phones sold well in Western Europe and China, the market in the US is another example. Yu said that the company was "so late" to the US. However, we are trying hard to raise our market share there in the next few years.
