This shows just how crazy Asians are about mobile phones, a study by the analytics firm IDC has shown that China will soon overtake the U.S and become the leading smartphone market in 2012. The U.S currently holds the top position with a market share of 21.3% but this trend is all set to change.</p> <div> <p>The study showed that China’s smartphone market share would rise from 18.2% to 20.7% this year. India and Brazil are also seen as emerging markets that will eventually beat the U.K which currently holds the third position with a share of 5.3%. IDC predicted that the U.K will drop to the fifth position by 2016.</p> <!-- START: Modules Anywhere --><div style = "margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; position:relative;left:0px;overflow:hidden;padding-left:0px; padding-right:0px; padding-top:0px; padding-bottom:0px;width:100%;background:; "><br/><center><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-0194516635272762"; /* 468x60, created 18/06/09 */ google_ad_slot = "1774863326"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 60; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></center> </div><!-- END: Modules Anywhere --> <p>The users in the emerging markets use smartphones more for entertainment and business purposes than for mere voice calls, thus making the phones really popular. The growth in smartphone sales in china is seen coming from the lower end smartphones produced by the likes of ZTE, Huawei and Lenovo. The situation is the same in India with the home-grown brands doing better than the international brands. As for Brazil, the sub USD 300 smartphones are doing really well with the mobile phone subscriptions exceeding the country’s population.</p> </div> <p>[<a href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/03/16/china_brazil_india_smartphones/">Article Source</a>]<br /><br /><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em><strong>Disclaimer:</strong><br />*Shanzai.com is a news and reviews website, we do not promote specifically the purchase or sale of the products and services mentioned in our content.</em></span></p> <!-- START: Modules Anywhere --><div class="bannergroup"> <div class="banneritem"><a href="http://www.shanzai.com//index.php/component/banners/click/1.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.shanzai.com/images/banners/merimobilesbar2.jpg" alt="Banner" /></a><div class="clr"></div> </div> </div><!-- END: Modules Anywhere --> 2012-03-15T12:11:02Z 2012-03-15T12:11:02Z http://www.shanzai.com/index.php/news-a-articles/tablets-a-gadgets/10-tablets/1776-nokias-windows-8-tablet-in-the-works-confirms-top-exec.html Neo timothyjbrown@gmail.com
