Subsidy of mobile carriers - the best channels for customers to buy at affordable rates.
Many carriers have been scaling back on their subsidy programs or extending upgrade cycles, and Apple could be impacted, given its higher price points.
Number two: Samsung .
Its flagships are: Samsung Note, Samsung Galaxy S6.

And Huawei Technologies Co.

Where the prices are lower?
After eliminating subsidies and service contracts a couple years ago, T-Mobile has invented a new kind of lock-in with its Score program.
With Score, you pay $5 per month on top of your existing T-Mobile bill in exchange for a discount on your next upgrade. After six months, subscribers can get an entry-level 4G smartphone free of charge. After 12 months, subscribers get a discount on any phone in T-Mobile’s lineup.
On the entry level, for example, T-Mobile is offering the Alcatel OneTouch Evolve 2 (regularly $79) at no extra charge after six months, for a discount of $49. The discount after 12 months depends on the phone, with T-Mobile listing $100 off Samsung’s Galaxy S5
Most growing phone producer: Xiaomi
While Xiaomi has yet to surpass Apple, it’s gobbled up market share in Asian markets and is increasing sales at a faster rate than any of the top five producers of smartphones. In the third quarter, Xiaomi shipped 17.3 million units, up more than 200% from the same period last year.
Xiaomi's model could end up disrupting the traditional ways smartphones are sold across the world. To further make costs lower, Xiaomi has shunned traditional ways of selling phones using physical stores and commercial ads. Instead, the firm sells its products mainly on the web, and has cultivated a growing fan base to help promote its products. It hopes to eventually sell software and virtual goods on its devices as a way to increase the profit.
Unprecedented partnership.
Uber will deliver Xiaomi smartphones in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur in the first partnership between the 2 world’s most valuable technology startups.
Customers can order the Mi Note with a 5.7-inch screen through Uber’s application a day before the device is available on Xiaomi’s own website.
Vendors are also focusing on delivering high-end devices that command better pricing and cater to customers looking to upgrade in a saturating smartphone market. For example, value handset champion Xiaomi has been increasingly launching well reviewed high-end models such as the Mi Note and Redmi 2.
New sales channels.
Since 2014 Xiaomi has started expanding its products on a global level by sending its products to places like Singapore and India.
Online Channels: Amazon, pricebaba.com, eBay, Flipkart and EU resellers like www.Mistorage.eu
