Apple and Google didn’t launch any smartphone compatible with 5G during 2019, but that is expected in 2020.
“5G smartphones contributed to 1% of global smartphone sales in 2019. However, 2020 will be the breakout year, with 5G smartphones poised to grow 1,687% with contribution rising to 18% of the total global smartphone sales volumes,” says Neil Shah, VP of Research at Counterpoint Research.
Samsung says that is now accounting for 53.9% of the global 5G smartphone market, by offering five Galaxy 5G devices globally, including the Galaxy S10 5G, Note10 5G and Note10+ 5G, Galaxy A90 5G, and Galaxy Fold 5G.
