Not many changes have occurred in the list of the most wanted smartphones this week. GSMArena has also released the list and it is predictable that the first position is still held by the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro smartphone.
Even so, it turns out that Samsung’s latest mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy A52s 5G, managed to rise from fifth place last week to second this week.
The popularity of the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G this week has actually managed to beat the Xiaomi Redmi 10, which was previously in second place and is now down to third.
Without further ado, here is a list of the 10 most sought-after smartphones in the 35th week of this year, quoted from GSMArena.
