Apple has achieved great success with the iPhone 14 series, which it launched last year. In this context, the company has seriously seized the smartphone market, even in China. Beginning in 2023, it appears like the Chinese smartphone market is off to a solid start. In the first month of this year, the region experienced strong sales, with Apple dominating the smartphone market.

Reports showing the market situation of 2022 have started to show up online, givings us ideas about last year's market dominations.  A Counterpoint Research analysis claims that the Chinese market had a strong start to 2023 in January. The COVID-19 wave in December 2022 was immediately followed by this, which similarly records a strong momentum moving into the new year. Before the week of the Chinese New Year season, the sales in the first month quickly grew week over week to reach over 7 million copies.

Apple did not only rise above in Chinese market but they also grew as a company as well. The business also had a growth of roughly 6% on an annual basis. Despite not being significantly greater than the preceding year, the market's gain in January was nevertheless positive given the market's situation weeks earlier.
