what dominance?


Samsung and Apple control 75% of the market in the US.


Apple 40%, samsung 25% , LG 10% in the US

Apple 25%, Samsung 34%, Huawei 17%, Xiaomi 10% in Europe

Sounds pretty fine for a market with healthy competition.

Really hard to call any of them a monopoly.

Google® has 94+% of mobile search in both US and EU!


> Apple 25%, Samsung 34%, Huawei 17%, Xiaomi 10% in Europe

Apple gets 11 billions/year to use Google as the default search engine

The remaining 61% (Samsung+Huawei+Xiaomi) is Android that means Google

Xiaomi defaults to Baidu in China, for example, but everywhere else, where the CPC has no direct control over the wires, they use Google because Google money is good even in China


Exclusive control on the one phone each user has.


that's kind of ridiculous, there is no dominant phone maker. Also a lot of ppl have multiple phones/tablets
