Honor and Huawei were tied for the top spot, with Honor’s market share rising to 17.1% and Huawei’s share climbing to 17%, IDC said, while the iPhone maker’s market share fell to 15.6%. The IDC declares a statistical tie when the difference between the share of revenue or shipments between two or more vendors is 0.1% or less. “Apple’s price promotions in the quarter were unable to mitigate the impact of the intense competition from Android players,” Arthur Guo, senior research analyst at IDC China said in the report.

An advertisement-free version would start at an introductory price of 29 rupees per month for streaming on a single device and go up to 89 rupees for a “Family” plan to stream on four simultaneous devices, JioCinema said in a statement.

The rally attempt paused Wednesday as Nvidia reversed lower. Meta, Chipotle and ServiceNow led key earnings late.
