In-Stat/MDR, Nov 2009, Pages: 65
The worldwide smartphone industry is one of the few that has successfully weathered the current recession; in fact, smartphones actually seem to be recession-proof. But while the number of smartphones continues to grow, so does the number of smartphone OSs, so much so, that 2010 looks like it will be a pivotal year for the survival of smartphone OSs.
This report looks at smartphone trends, including operating systems, hardware content, and consumer preferences, and backs up these trends with a smartphone forecast, regional forecast, a forecast for each major smartphone OS, and forecasts for smartphones with GPS, picoprojectors, accelerometers, image sensors, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. Also included are survey results on what features users want in their smartphones, and a bill-of-materials for a typical smartphone.
Worldwide Smartphones covers the worldwide market for Smartphones.
It includes:
- Examination of smartphone operating systems, touch screens, applications, image sensors, and wireless connectivity options.
- Forecasts of unit sales by OS and for smartphones with touch screens, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and accelerometers through 2014.
- Examination of smartphone components and bill of materials.
- Analysis of the smartphone OS market and developments in component and feature technology.
Recent research found the following:
- Shipments of smartphones with touch screens will more than double from 2008 to 2009.
- RIM OS has been gaining market share in the non-enterprise segment, speaking to the importance of clever hardware design in the segment.
- The total smartphone market in 2014 will be 412 million units.
- Shipments of smartphone with accelerometers will grow to over 350 million units by 2014.
- Over 52% of a smartphones cost is made-up by displays (touch screens), baseband and apps processors, and software and licensing make-up. Clearly, making a phone “smart” has significant cost impacts.
