Apple has experienced a shift in its market position across Asia, losing its top spot as China's best-selling smartphone maker, while simultaneously continuing to dominate the Japanese market. Despite a 3.5% year-over-year decline in Japan's smartphone market at the end of 2023, Apple's iPhone still accounted for around half of all sales in the country. The overall market in Japan saw an 11% decrease, yet Apple maintained a greater than 50% market share, with Google's Pixel lineup making notable progress through Docomo.
