Apple is clobberingSamsung.

Despite introducing the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) appears to have failed to reverse its smartphone market share declines in 2015 Q2. Meanwhile, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is on track to post about a 40% y/y unit sales gain for iPhone. Samsung's recent guidance indicates an 8% y/y decline in revenue, while Apple's revenue for the June quarter may increase by about 30%. The different trajectories of these companies can be explained by their sales performance in China.

As always, Apple is doomed.

Despite the Galaxy S6 being one of the better Galaxy devices in the past few years, Samsung has still been losing traction globally. They're being squeezed hard in China by Apple, Xiaomi and Huawei. All three of those companies have seen considerable growth in the Chinese market at Samsung's and Lenovo's expense. The Chinese market is also said to be slowing down, so it's no wonder companies like Xiaomi are starting to push into markets outside of China.

All 100% correct.
