Here are our best-selling products of 2016

Translation: machine translated
Every month, over a hundred thousand parcels leave our warehouse. In the article below, we reveal which products are our biggest sellers.
1st place
PC geeks are among digitec's early customers. Many of them have remained loyal to us. This has a direct impact on component sales. The most popular of these is the SSD, and the best-selling model is Samsung's EVO with 500GB.
2nd place
The iPhone & is digitec's best-selling smartphone. By the way, exactly this model; sidereal grey. How boring!
3rd place
The Office subscription has, for the first time, beaten the standalone version: you still get the latest version of the Office pack, but you have to renew the licence every year.
4th place
Streaming ahead: the Sonos multiroom system convinces the majority of customers by far.
5th place
Pure Android: the new Nexus 5X wows the majority of Android fans.
6th place
Samsung's Galaxy S7 Edge is more popular than the S7. The Nexus 5X is only just ahead of it.
7th place
Small, but strong! The performance of this speaker is always surprising. The good record-breaking reviews from the community speak for themselves.
8th place
digitec has not escaped the Pokémon craze. Emergency chargers have sold particularly well.
9th place
Streaming again! The Google Chromecast is the most popular hub for streaming at home.
10th place
The best-selling computer isn't a PC or a notebook. It's a Raspberry Pi 3. (It still would be, even if we hadn't installed 1,000 of them in our branches.)
We've embellished the list a little to keep it interesting: cables, consumables, memory cards and the like are not included. Professional customer purchases have also been excluded. Putting it all together wasn't as easy as we thought, because we have different classifications. Some summarise the different types and models, and some where only specific products are listed. This list is a mixture of both approaches.
Fun Fact
Is this a joke? No no, Pokémon Go has actually had an influence on spare charger sales. Sales of the XB102 Free above prove it.
Yours!
