Top 10 trending phones of week 9

After a one-week hiatus when yours truly was busy roaming Barcelona and covering the latest announcements at MWC 2023 our trending chart is back. And the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra's reign is interrupted by the Xiaomi 13 Pro, which took advantage of its global debut and shot to the top.

Samsung's flagship is still a close second though, so we might see a reverse next week. In the next two spots we have the vanilla counterparts of the top 2 - Xiaomi 13 is third, while the Galaxy S23 is fourth.

Galaxy A53 comes in fifth, while the 13 Lite is six, continuing the Samsung-Xiaomi pattern. That's finally broken by the Poco X5 Pro in seventh and the solitary Apple smartphone on the chart - the iPhone 14 Pro Max in eight.

Newly announced vivo V27 Pro and Honor Magic5 Pro took the final two positions and wrapped up a totally overhauled chart.

We'll see how things shake out once the MWC hype dies down and we return to normal service. Join us next week to find out!
