That report is EXACTLY what I mean. Apple is having to push the narrative based on segmented data in order to appear to have market dominance. 'Early 2018' is when they released their last model - and prior to the S9 release. Even then, Apple was barely beating Galaxy models 2 and 3 years older.
That report was the moment I knew Apple had lost their position as the leader in the market, because they had to take specific dates in time to say they were best-selling...as opposed to a few years ago, when they were best selling all year long in a runaway.
Do you even read what you post links to? You are posting ONE quarter results from winter of 2018 that completely backs up what I just wrote. You need to at least review what you are randomly Googling.
