Cross-referencing, no Huaweiin the top 10 phones by shipment volume... (Xiaomi jumped onto the list tho).

Looks like Huawei was making a pretty penny on their P40 lineup without moving as high a # of units.

And the iPhone mini being a ‘disappointment’ with those profit figures... Any manufacturer except Apple would love that. Though, interesting that both it and the iPhone SE both dropped off the volume list.
Did Apple try to retain production capacity/components for its highest margin phones and related service plans, with that meaning restrained production volumes for the lower margin iPhones that were on that list? I have liked the SE option even as my primary iPhones are not that; with the SE option, I've saved money not only on the phones but also on skipping the AppleCare+ stuff.
