The growth of smartphones has been nothing short of phenomenal, but their spread has been rather uneven, with the majority of smartphones being used in North America, Western Europe, Japan, South Korea, and parts of China. But in Latin America, Africa, India, and developing areas of China, cellphone use is quite widespread, but smartphone use is not. In these areas, smartphones are just too expensive for most to afford.
This report looks at the background of the low-cost smartphone market, and how we got where we are today. It looks at Android in-depth and the problems that Google faces as it marches ahead into the low-cost arena. The obstacles are explored in detail, as are the markets in the regions where low-cost Android smartphones will dominate.
Forecasts include smartphone shipments, Android smartphone shipments, and low-cost Android smartphone shipments by region.
