i do wish that MacRumors, when it posts this kind of report, has the depth of knowledge to be able to include in its story some necessary info to correctly interpret the data it is reporting.
Huawei, Vivo, and Oppo include in their data what i call "supply chain channel fill" ie, phones simply .
In the event that retailers have taken too much stock, ALL Huawei, Vivo, and Oppo phones are either dramatically price reduced, or simply returned to the brand.
What this means in terms of the "phones shipped" (as the data is correctly labeled) is quite different from the supply chain practices that apple uses in China.
An apple phone "shipped" is much more highly likely to end up being an actually "phone sold".
Apple controls its China domestic sell-in, supply chain, and pricing controls very well (as it does in most markets).
Data showing somehow creditable info for Huawei, Vivo, and Oppo "phones-sold (sell-out, instead of sell-in to trade)", would be more revealing and very interesting data.
