In addition, market intelligence firm Counterpoint released their latest available data for the most sold phones globally, which is for the month of October, so the iPhone X is not present in it, but, according to other reports, its uptake has surpassed that of the iPhone 8 or 8 Plus by now.
Counterpoint lists the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus as the world's most popular smartphones in terms of sales for that month, followed by Samsung's big-screen Note 8 and S8+ phones. Out of the top 10 most sought-after phones in October globally, seven are Samsung or Apple handsets, with three Chinese makers - Vivo, Oppo and Xiaomi - rounding up the ranks.
