BEIJING， Feb. 7 (Xinhua) -- Three Chinese brands， OPPO， Huawei and Vivo， outperformed Apple and Xiaomi to become the top three smartphone vendors in China in terms of shipments in 2016.
For the first time， OPPO sold the most， 78.4 million mobile handsets in China last year， soaring 122.2 percent from 2015， according to a report released Monday by the International Data Corporation (IDC).
In 2015， OPPO was ranked fourth in a similar IDC list.
Vivo was the fifth largest smartphone vendor in 2015， but was third in 2016 with a 96.9 percent surge in sales to 69.2 million handsets， the report said.
Both brands were popular among the young， especially fashionable young women， due to celebrity endorsements， embedded advertisments in entertainment programs and a well developed brick-and-motar retail network in smaller cities.
"Their brands became increasingly recognized by consumers through intensive brand exposure and word of mouth，" the report said .
Huawei stayed second， up 21.8 percent to 76.6 million units. Its market share edged up slightly from a year earlier to 16.4 percent in 2016.
The top three Chinese brands grabbed a total of 48 percent of the Chinese market last year.
Jin Di， a research manager with IDC China， said another reason behind the success of Chinese brands was their willingness to share profits with distribution partners.
Apple dropped from third in 2015 to fourth in 2016， as shipments to China plunged 23.2 percent to 44.9 million units.
Xiaomi was top in 2015， but fell to the bottom of the top-five vendors， with a 36 percent plunge in sales in China.
Total smartphone shipment volume in China rose 8.7 percent to 467.3 million handsets last year.
The IDC forecast that the volume in 2017 will continue to grow as consumers replace old phones， but that the growth will be slower than 2016.
New changes are likely in China's smartphone market this year due to fierce competition among Chinese manufacturers， the IDC said.
Worldwide， the top five smartphone vendors in terms of shipments last year were Samsung， Apple， Huawei， OPPO and Vivo.

CANBERRA Quinten Rollins Youth Jersey , July 18 (Xinhua) -- The Australian governmentannounced Tuesday it will form an all-encompassing "Home Affairs"portfolio to deal with the growing threat of terror.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull described the move as the "mostsignificant reform of Australia's national intelligence anddomestic security arrangements in more than 40 years."
In response to the ever-changing threat of global and domesticterrorism, Turnbull said the government drew inspiration from GreatBritain's Home Office instead of the United States' Department ofHomeland Security in forming the new portfolio.
Turnbull said while Australians had been "well served" by itsseparated agencies, the government "must stay ahead of thethreats Damarious Randall Youth Jersey ," adding that the new super ministry would coordinateintelligence gathering as well as responses to domestic terrorthreats.
"The new Home Affairs portfolio will be similar to the HomeOffice of the United Kingdom: a central department providingstrategic planning, coordination and other support to a'federation' of independent security and law enforcement agenciesincluding the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO),the Australian Federal Police (AFP) Kenny Clark Youth Jersey , the Australian Border Force(ABF) and the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC),"Turnbull said.
"These arrangements will preserve the operational focus andstrengths of frontline agencies engaged in the fight againstterrorism, organised crime and other domestic threats."
As a result Bart Starr Youth Jersey , the justice minister will no longer be required totake charge of matters involving the AFP, while theattorney-general will no longer oversee ASIO.
The new minister for home affairs will be current ImmigrationMinister Peter Dutton, who told the press that enabling closercollaboration between the government's agencies was the "best thingfor Australia."
"We have been discussing how this would work and if it is bestfor Australia and the answer is 'yes Ha Ha Clinton-Dix Youth Jersey ,'" Dutton said on Tuesday.
"It's going to allow us the greatest capacity to keepAustralians safe. My job is to make sure, along with the otherministers, that we provide every support possible to our agenciesto keep Australians safe."
Meanwhile Attorney-General George Brandis praised the decisionto take responsibility for spy agency ASIO away from him office Aaron Rodgers Youth Jersey ,saying that he can give his time to "many other pressingresponsibilities."
"These reforms are important because they mean that, for thefirst time, Australia will have as a senior cabinet minister - aminister whose exclusive focus is on national security Ty Montgomery Womens Jersey ," he toldreporters.
"For the nearly four years I've been in the Attorney-Generalportfolio, and the (ASIO) responsibility has been with me. But theAttorney-General has many other, pressing responsibilities."
"These announcements will correct that anomaly. We will have aminister who can give 100 percent of their time to nationalsecurity Quinten Rollins Womens Jersey , and it will return the Attorney-General's portfolio toits traditional, orthodox function as the first law officer of theCommonwealth."
But experts have been hesitant to throw support behind thegovernment's big shift to a centralized Home Affairs portfolio.
Professor Michael Wesley from the Australian National University(ANU) said the current system works "very well" and accused thegovernment of "playing politics" over terrorism.
"I think we've got one of the most successful security andpolicing sectors in the world that has been honed over decades ofpractice and high operational capability," Wesley told Sky News onTuesday morning.
"We've seen in Australian much fewer terrorist attacks than inthe UK or the US that have centralized homeland securitydepartments."
