The iPhone holds the position of smartphone activation in the US Christmas time. Specifically, the nine apple models are in the top ten, leaving little room for the competitive model. This is stated by the company of analytics Blurry post on his organization's blog (via Ryan jones).
The position was led by the iPhone 11 and managed by Apple
The scenario prepared by the data analytics company focused on the era from December 25 to 31. So, it includes activations done right after Christmas. Of course, collecting data on the US market, it is very important for its global weight.
Here we can see the distribution of the ten most active models this Christmas. As you can see, nine out of 10 models are from Apple. IPhone 11 leads the list with 6.16%, followed in the distance from the iPhone XR, by 5.27%. Other models are more than two percentage points away from these two terminals.
The iPhone 11 is the most expensive model in the current generation, its price starting at $ 699 ($ 50 less than the iPhone XR when it is paid in 2018). The iPhone XR, on the other hand, is sold at the official price of $ 599. These prices, attachments to last week's promotions together with both features, they have made excellent devices.
Surprisingly, the following models are the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8, respectively. The iPhone 11 Pro Max comes in fifth place, and the iPhone 11 Pro is not on the leaderboard. Types of iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 6 Plus and iPhone 7 Plus Complete the broadcast of the terminals with Touch ID and a large diagonal, followed by the iPhone X. Among them is the iPhone 6 Plus, which is not compatible with iOS 13 and probably "dies" by the family models.
The only non-Apple end to exist in this case the Xiaomi Mi 4 LTE. According to Flurry, the model snatched that position from Samsung's Samsung A10e days after December 25th.
The attractive 4.7-inch iPhone 8
If there are rumors caught in the past months, that is the look of the iPhone SE 2. Under the name of "iPhone 9", it could be a center with an iPhone 8 chassis and various improvements where analysts estimate the 20 million units sold.
If there is something outstanding from the data provided by Flurry, a permanent attraction of 4.7 inches. Both the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 are in the top 5 of the Christmas season, ahead of other major models. An iPhone of 5.5 inches and up occupies the following positions.
This is an indication of what we saw a few months ago when talking about nostalgia for the 4-inch iPhone. The distribution of models through their historical sharing shows that they are clear 4.7-inch consumer attraction, followed by major additions. But this does not mean that this is the perfect size for the iPhone, rather it shows that the consumer is inclined towards more and more growing models.
4.7 centimeters continue to maintain a significant appeal among consumers, which is why Apple is considering saving them with the "iPhone 9"
The rumored iPhone 9 becomes a kind of broom car. A a repurchaser of customers who are funny or hesitant to own a large iPhone. A model that motivates them to have a modern terminal more than 4 inches, storing standard features on the iPhone: Home button, touch ID and without the interface.
Rumors say that we will see the new iPhone SE replacement this spring. Of course, it can be a catalyst for refresh the finish for those who want other recent technologies Apple at a very expensive price.
