Week 8: A Shift in the Smartphone Landscape
The eighth week of the year marked a significant turning point in the smartphone market, with two noteworthy developments dominating the trend charts. First, we witnessed the conclusion of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra’s dominant position that began at the year’s outset, coinciding with one of the most varied trending lists we’ve seen recently.
New Entrants Take Center Stage
Making an impressive debut was Apple’s latest release, the iPhone 16e, which instantly soared to exceptional heights on our chart. Meanwhile, second place went to a device yet to be officially revealed—the Nothing Phone (3a)—signifying its status as one of this year’s most eagerly awaited devices ahead of its upcoming showcase at MWC.
This shift pushed Samsung’s flagship model down to third place. We believe that once initial excitement subsides around these new models, particularly from Apple and Nothing, there is potential for a resurgence from the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra’s Current Standing
This phone remains highly recommended among various retailers:
- 256GB/12GB RAM: €1,159.90 / £1,249.00
- 512GB/12GB RAM: €1,159.90 / £1,349.00
A Look at Other Contenders
The fourth spot has been claimed by Samsung’s Galaxy A55 while Xiaomi’s Poco X7 Pro follows closely in fifth place. The newly launched vivo V50 also made its presence felt immediately on this week’s chart.
Sitting comfortably in sixth is Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro Max; it narrowly surpasses Samsung’s Galaxy S25 model which tumbled down four ranks this week.
A Busy Chart Follows Suit
The trend chart closes out with two additional fresh faces: Realme P3 Pro taking ninth place while Nothing Phone (3a) Pro rounds off our list at tenth spot.
