CNN —Apple is banking on its upcoming AI features to boost iPhone sales especially in China, where demand has been lagging. But there’s a problem: ChatGPT — soon to be integrated into Siri — is banned in China. But China is one of the first countries in the world to regulate the generative AI technology that powers these popular services. Resurgent competitorsMeanwhile, Chinese smartphone brand Huawei’s smartphone sales growth was 70% in the first quarter, according to Counterpoint Research. In other parts of the world, Samsung uses its own propriety AI technology, along with Google’s (GOOGL) AI model Gemini, which is also banned in China.

Analysts from Counterpoint Research said the overall mobile market in China fell by 7% with companies including Apple, Oppo and Vivo experiencing declines. Customers that once would have considered Apple are now turning to national brands, particularly Huawei, Counterpoint said. The stock has fallen about 11.6% this year on concerns about weakening sales, particularly in China. China remains a very important market for Apple as it is the largest market behind the US. “Apple, to its credit, ended the year at number one, which was extraordinary despite headwinds from China,” he said.

A month after Apple's latest iPhones came out, analysts and investors are starting to see signs of slow demand in China versus last year's models. Sales of Apple's iPhone 15 models in their first 17 days are down 4.5% in China versus last year, according to an estimate from Counterpoint Research. Jeffries analysts say "weak demand" in China has knocked Apple off the top spot for smartphone market share in the country. It's a tough smartphone market for everyone. "Apple, we suspect, could be down five-ish percent — and the China market is down at least 5%," Counterpoint research director Jeff Fieldhack told CNBC.

CNN —Demand for Apple’s new iPhone 15 lineup is weaker in China than for last year’s models, according to analysts. Sales for the iPhone 15 are down 4.5% in China compared to iPhone 14 sales in the first two weeks after its launch, according to Counterpoint Research. Separately, Bloomberg reported on Monday financial firm Jefferies said iPhone 15 sales dropped by a double-digit percentage following strong customer demand for Huawei’s new Mate 60 smartphone line. That’s strong growth for Apple considering sales fell for the third consecutive quarter in August, ahead of the iPhone 15 launch. In September, the US government sought more information about the Mate 60 Pro’s 5G Kirin 9000s processor reportedly developed specifically for the manufacturer.

"It will take years for Apple to diversify," the research director told CNBC's "Squawk Box Asia" Tuesday, explaining that Apple's latest iPhones will likely continue to be built in China for the next few years. In a statement on Sunday, Apple said that it temporarily reduced iPhone 14 production as its primary iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max assembly plant in Zhengzhou, China is operating at "significantly reduced capacity" due to Covid-19 restrictions. Apple has been diversifying its device assembly process away from China and opening factories in countries south of China, such as India and Vietnam.
