File:How Apple Dominated Japan

Over the past decade, Apple has ended up dominating Japan. Capturing 65% of their smartphone market, a number that Apple hasn’t reached in any other country, including the US. And that may seem a little odd considering Japan’s reputation for being the technological powerhouse of the world. Igniting the MP3 player era with the Walkman, and inventing the pocket calculator, DVD player, DSLR camera, laptop, blu-ray player, and more. Plus, Japanese people are known to try to buy products from their own country rather than those from overseas. So how did Apple, an American company on the other side of the world, manage to dominate Japan; a country filled with tech products of their own? Well, that’s exactly what I’m going to explain in this video.
