Android is struggling to keep its market share in the United States, as Apple continues to take over in the market. But, despite Android as a whole losing ground, Google Pixel phones are becoming a bigger slice of the US market.

Counterpoint Research reports that, in Q2 2023, US smartphone shipments dropped by 24% year-over-year. That includes both iPhones and Android phones, and virtually every brand saw a drop in shipments. Samsung saw US shipments drop by 37% while Motorola saw a 17% drop. TCL saw the biggest decline at just shy of 70% year-over-year, and even Apple saw a 6% drop.

          Lmao, god I’m so jealous of Europe sometimes. I have to assume you don’t live in the US.

          There are some places here you can get away with not having one, but its basically a non-option for the vast majority of the US

              All good lol. There are things I appreciate about my country, but definitely also things I don’t 😅 city planing and viability of bikes & walking are 100% the latter

        I mean, Fairphone runs Android. So the same Android Auto that a Google Pixel would have

          That is by Google though. Right? They said their phone is de-googled. So maybe the question isn’t what does Fairphone have, but what does a de-googled Android phone use?
