Worldwide smartphone deliveries drop to 13-year low due to chip scarcity

Data from Counterpoint Research indicates that international smartphone shipments dipped by 11% during this year's second quarter, marking the lowest point since 2013. This downturn is attributed to a worldwide shortage of memory chips, as manufacturers favored AI data center clients instead of consumer electronics, which in turn increased the price of components. Meanwhile, Samsung has reclaimed its position as the leader in global shipments, capturing 24% of the market.
