And when it comes to emerging markets and Apple, China still reigns supreme, having generated roughly 20% of Apple's total revenue in its most recent quarter.

In the following video, tech and telecom specialist Andrew Tonner looks at Apple's recent push into India's smartphone market in greater detail.
