A couple of other spots have been taken by budget smartphones from Xiaomi and Samsung. However, no other smartphone brand's flagship smartphone has made it into the list, except, Apple. In an interesting turn of events, Apple's iPhone 12 mini has outsold the iPhone SE 2020, which are in 8th and 10th place in the best selling of smartphones of January 2021 with a one percent market share for each model.
