Best phones: Most sold smartphone of 2021
The most sold smartphone of 2021 so far is, unsurprisingly, the Apple iPhone 11. This is the phone that is currently top of T3's best phones guide, and as of early September this year it has sold 37.7 million units around the world.Interestingly, this is then followed by some interesting runners up. Where you would think Samsung and Huawei would be snapping at Apple's heels with their flagship devices, in fact it is the mid-range Samsung Galaxy A51 and Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 that follow, with 11.4 and 11 million sales respectively.Indeed, it is then nothing but Xiaomi and Apple phones in the remaining top 10 in terms of most sold smartphones so far in 2021, with Apple taking up 5 out of the top 10 slots.Now, of course, we've still got some big releases to come this year, but considering the gap between first and second in this list, we can't see any other phone dethroning Apple and its iPhone 11. And, to be honest, we're totally cool with that. The iPhone 11 is a superb phone and that's why it is our number one phone recommendation for most people.
