Apple’s iPhone unit sales in greater China jumped about 48 percent, and Mac computer sales rose 39 percent in the June quarter, Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri told Reuters.

Lower-cost phones sold there by up-and-coming rivals, such as Xiaomi, appeared to be taking market share mainly from other companies that rely on Google’s Android mobile software, Maestri added.

“We have a really good runway in front of us with China Mobile,” Maestri said in an interview, referring to Apple’s main carrier partner in the world’s No. 2 economy.
