Huawei exceeds 200 million smartphone shipments, setting company record

It credits the success of its P20 and Honor 10 phones, among others.
Huawei has set a record for itself by shipping more than 200 million smartphones in 2018, the company said in a statement Sunday.
The Chinese phone maker said the numbers were largely driven by the success of products like its P20, Honor 10 and Mate 20 series.
Huawei’s smartphone shipments have grown from 3 million units in 2010, it added. Last year, it said it sold 153 million units. The company overtook Apple in the second quarter of 2018 to become the world’s second largest phone vendor, according to researcher Canalys.
“In the global smartphone market, Huawei has gone from being dismissed as a statistical ‘other’ to ranking among the Top 3 players in the world,” Huawei said in its statement.
