I do travel a lot, hence why I know how little iPhones are seen around the planet.

I guess Bangkok holds 28% of Thailand population then.

Also the issue being discussed here are Apple computers with M1, even less than those 28%, in case you also want numbers.

That's not how statistics work. You said significant market share "of apple products" and there it is.

Don't say

"the issue being discussed here are Apple computers with M1"

when your comment said

"Please list tier 2 and tier 3 countries where there is a significant market share of Apple hardware."

> and still the iPhone is at 28%,

It's not.

It's more like 25% and dropping

In Italy iPhones used to be 50% of the market, because they were a status symbol and it was literally the only smartphone available, ten years after they have dropped below 24% globally, but new sells are much less, because

The number of people buying their first iPhone is declining. Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference this week will showcase how the technology giant is diversifying so that it no longer has to rely so heavily on its signature product.

-- 20th June 2020 - Bangkok Post

Regarding new phones Apple is now third with 10% of the market share in Thailand behind Samsung (22.3%) and Huawei (17.6%)

Consider that 25% is a minority, 75% is 3 times larger.

Apple is not gaining market shares anywhere, except in the US.

In China it dropped from 25% to 17%, in Europe from 17% to 14% in the last year.

The article was about ARM in computers, Apple computing devices are only 8% of the total in Thailand.

They were 9% at the beginning of this year.

Have you ever heard of anger management?

Can you disprove the data without spewing all that bile?

I'm honestly worried about your health.

Here's a WSJ article about the topic

Whatever, keep inside your happy bubble if it makes you happy.

Personal attacks are a sign of lack of proper arguments.

Those were not personal attacks, they were explaining that apple stuff is desired around the world and even in countries with lower incomes, people will save up to buy apple hardware, buy it used, etc.
