If you look at the numbers, a LOT of this is China. Sales the western nation are pretty much flat year over year.

Apple sales are down YoY in China, and Huawei are way way up. A lot of these American devices now have their differentiating features stuck behind the great firewall, are outright banned if you work certain jobs, and are subject to a lot of propogada that is promoting national alternatives.
