    Most of the smartphones sold in US are not iPhones.

    This is just a demonstrably false statement that’s very easily fact checked. I’m not saying that to defend Apple. I’m a Google Pixel guy myself.

      I stand corrected, while android dominates the world, in US iPhone share is indeed just above the half (55%). It is still not enough to call it monopoly, but it might have chance.

        The document published by the DOJ make the point that Apple has closer to 65% market share of you to by revenue, and also have a high market share amoung the teens. But I don’t get this focus on whether or not Apple is a monopoly. The lawsuit alleges that Apple has a significant market share is using anticompetitive practices to stay there.
