GUANGZHOU -- Huawei Technologies is on track to beat Apple in full-year smartphone sales for the first time and take second place in the global market, with more than 200 million units already shipped in 2018.
The Chinese telecommunications company has greatly increased sales in China, Europe and Africa this year, and has already achieved a more than 30% jump in global unit sales from the 153 million sold in 2017. The P20 series, featuring high-spec cameras co-developed with Germany's Leica, was especially popular.
