iPhone shipments in India increased 6% in 2019

iPhone shipments in India grew 6% in 2019 compared with a 43% decline in the previous year, stabilizing its position in a rare market that still exhibits growth in smartphone demand, reports Bloomberg.

Discounting the iPhone XR by $250 in the middle of the year made it Apple’s best-selling smartphone in the country, according to Counterpoint Technology Market Research. The fall introduction of the iPhone 11, with a reduced starting price, “helped to gain share during the festive season and in its launch quarter in India,” the research group added.
