Google Pixel sales are still far from competing with those of brands like Samsung, Apple or even Xiaomi. However, every year, the Mountain View firm makes significant progress. For example, in 2023, Google Pixel would have shipped more than 10 million smartphones, according to data from Nikkei. And, little by little, this one is gaining market share in countries such as the United States and Japan.
Furthermore, in the third quarter of 2024, Google Pixel is said to have had its best quarter ever. This is in any case what is suggested by a new publication from the company Counterpoint Research on global smartphone shipments. During this three-month period, Google is said to have recorded its highest volume of smartphones shipped in a quarter.
A hit for the Pixel 9 series ?
Unfortunately, Counterpoint doesn't provide more details. But it's very likely that this new Google Pixel record in the third quarter is attributed to sales of the Pixel 9 series, which was presented in August. This series is a bit unusual, since in total, Google released four new smartphones: the Pixel 9 which is the base model, the Pixel 9 Pro, the Pixel 9 Pro XL which has a larger screen, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which is Google's new folding smartphone. It seems that the new AI-based features it has embedded in these smartphones, as well as its improvements in photography, have allowed Google to attract more customers.

Google’s flagship has the same score as the Honor Magic6 Pro, and is ahead of Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro Max. Otherwise, in May, Google also unveiled the Pixel 8a, a mid-range smartphone. And it’s possible that the price-performance ratio of this device also boosted Google Pixel sales.
