- US Smartphone Shipments Decline 19% YoY in Q3 2023 as More Americans Delay Smartphone Upgrade - Counterpoint

US smartphone shipments declined YoY for the fourth straight quarter in Q3 2023 amid weak consumer demand. 

Google, Samsung and TCL were among the brands recording the steepest YoY declines, while Motorola and Nokia HMD managed growth amid a challenging market environment.  

Apple’s iPhone shipments declined 11% YoY, in part due to the later launch date of the iPhone 15 series compared to the iPhone 14 series.  

Weak upgrade rates at the carriers were the main source of weak smartphone shipments, signaling that consumers are opting to hold on to their devices for longer.
