Google's mobile business continues to grow. Sales in the previous quarter were high, and at the end of 2024, the company is keeping up the pace, especially thanks to discounts. According to StatCounter, the Pixel's share in the US reaches 12%, 9to5Google reports.
StatCounter does not provide accurate data on smartphone sales, as their estimates are based on web traffic analysis. However, even with this data, it is clear that the number of Pixel users in the United States has grown significantly in recent months.
Despite some abnormal spikes in the statistics, which could be an error, Pixel's performance in the US is showing significant growth compared to the past. However, Google's smartphones are still far from competing with the iPhone, which has a 52.9% market share.
Moreover, these figures are supported by Google's financial statements. The company reported that in Q3 2024, the company's smartphone sales were the highest in history. This success was achieved thanks to the new Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL models released earlier this year.
Tracking the popularity of smartphones through web traffic data does not give a complete picture. However, it is likely that we will soon have more accurate statistics that will allow us to better assess the success of Google Pixel devices.
