Apple's brand loyalty in the United States remains strong with 89% of users purchasing another iPhone when upgrading.
Although there was a small decline of 5 percentage points since 2023, Apple's loyalty rate is still unmatched in the smartphone industry.
Samsung's loyalty increased from 68% to 76% between 2021 and 2025, while Apple's loyalty rate has seen a decline.
CIRP suggests that Apple and Samsung owner loyalty is not directly comparable due to differences in user base, with Apple having a significantly larger share in the U.S. market.
