The brand took a big leap with capturing 17 percent market share - its highest-ever -- in the third quarter (July-September period) this year.

When the first Apple iPhone hit the market in 2007, not everyone was convinced it would supplant the flip-phone. When Google's Android software system arrived a year later, the Blackberry still seemed to have bright future. But with the iPhone 4 in 2010, featuring a high-resolution display, sleek design and front-facing camera, our collective fate was sealed.

WhatsApp‘s long-awaited dark mode feature is finally ready for release and reportedly some of its users have already tested it.

The iPhone XR alone contributed to over one-quarter of the total Apple sales during the quarter, making it the best-selling model for Apple across all regions.
