The company overtook Samsung Electronics in global smartphone shipments in the second quarter. It shipped 55.8 million devices from April to June, down 5 percent from a year earlier. In contrast, Samsung&rsquo;s volume slid a sharper 30 percent to 53.7 million.<\/p>\n<p>According to Canalys, it was the first quarter in nine years that a brand other than&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pocketnow.com\/tag\/apple\">Apple&nbsp;<\/a>or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pocketnow.com\/tag\/samsung\">Samsung&nbsp;<\/a>has led the global market. However, it may be tough for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pocketnow.com\/tag\/huawei\">HUAWEI&nbsp;<\/a>to maintain that lead due to the US sanctions. Further, the company&rsquo;s overseas shipments fell 27 percent in 2Q, but its Chinese volumes rose 8 percent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Following the announcement, Huawei has released the following statement:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Our business has demonstrated exceptional resilience in these difficult times. Amidst a period of unprecedented global economic slowdown and challenges, we&rsquo;ve continued to grow and further our leadership position by providing innovative products and experience to consumers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As we look towards the future, where 5G, AI and IoT will grow increasingly ubiquitous, our focus will remain on executing our All-scenario Seamless AI Life Strategy.
