In addition to the official financial report, we can also estimate the number of devices shipped by mobile phone manufacturers from multiple sources, such as the number of semiconductor chips purchased. According to Weifeng.com, well-known market statistics agency Gartner has released a list of 2016 semiconductor chip procurement data, which shows that Apple is still the second largest buyer in the world. The company's chip purchases in 2016 were US$29.989 billion, down 2.9% year-on-year and with a market share of 8.8%.
The first place is still Samsung. The Korean electronics giant spent $16.167 billion in chip purchases in 2016, up 4.4% year-on-year and with a market share of 9.3%. From the report, most of the semiconductor chips purchased by Apple are used in the main products, especially the iPhone, iPad and Mac. These three products are the biggest guarantee for Apple's income, which is a matter of course. But Apple tends to buy bulk chips, mainly to get a better quote for each component.
In 2015, a large portion of Apple's chip purchase orders came from Samsung's A9 processor for its foundry, but this changed in 2016. Especially for the A10 processor on the iPhone 7/7 Plus, it is unanimous that TSMC is the only supplier. The report shows that the chip buyers from the third to the tenth are: Dell, Lenovo, Huawei, HP, HPE, Sony, BBK, LG.
