Apple and Samsung are ~40-50% of the global market, depending on the source. Saying that smartphones are mostly from Chinese companies isn't accurate. And Samsung and Apple are gaining market share, while the major Chinese brands are losing market share.

iPhones are predominantly made in China

Foxconn facilities in cities like Zhengzhou (known as "iPhone City") and Shenzhen.

Yes, but I was responding to this comment:

"Smartphones are mostly Chinese now (except for iPhones and Samsung)."

Which implies that we are talking about the companies, not where they are manufactured.
