Global chip revenue reaches $602 bn last year: Report
Samsung Electronics retained the top spot, despite revenue falling 10.4 per cent in 2022, primarily due to declines in memory and NAND flash sales, according to the report.
According to the Yonhap news agency, Samsung’s Q2 share increased marginally from the 12.5% it recorded in the prior quarter.
According to a study report released on Monday, Samsung Electronics increased its market share in the second quarter of the worldwide semiconductor sector while maintaining its leadership.

Samsung and Intel have been locked in a fierce rivalry for many years.
In 2017, Samsung surpassed Intel as the world’s biggest chipmaker by revenue for the first time, and it maintained the spot for two years in a row.
Intel overtook Samsung in 2019 and remained at the top until 2020, before it was beaten by Samsung again last year.
Meanwhile, SK hynix ranked No. 3 with a 6.8 percent market share for the three months ending in June, followed by Qualcomm with 5.9 percent, Micron with 5.2 percent, Broadcom with 4.2 percent, Nvidia with 3.6 percent and MediaTek with 3.3 percent.
