iPhone 17 Pro has gained a lot of traction in the Chinese market, but this one budget-friendly Honor phone has outperformed the flagship model in the weekly sales race. This device is none other than the Honor X70 with a giant 8300mAh battery pack.
RDObservation has shared a big list of the Chinese smartphone sales for the 10th week of 2026, where Huawei, Honor, Apple, and the top 30 brands are listed alongside their performance level.
Though the spotlight gatherer of this list is the Honor X70 phone, which has surpassed the iPhone 17 Pro in the sales ranking. It has ranked third, pushing Apple’s flagship to the fourth position.
According to the latest sales list, Apple still holds the top two ranks with its iPhone 17 Pro Max in the first spot and the standard iPhone 17 at the second place.
