Future Mobile Handsets 12th edition

"The handset market has seen a recovery in 2010, following the impact of the economic downturn in 2009 and sales volumes are expected to continue rising. However, in the highly competitive market striking the balance between providing scale and making healthy margins is proving difficult. Growth in the smartphone market has also attracted more players to the sector, causing a shake-up of the industry dynamics, which has brought with it a re-examination of segmentation, costs and the user experience."
Dave McQueen, Principal Analyst, Informa Telecoms & Media

Overview
Although the global recession has impacted the volume of mobile handsets in recent years, this trend has not been seen in equal measure across all segments. While demand on the mid-tier fell away, sales of new smartphones has grown, due largely to consumer demand and mobile operators’ focus on increasing smartphone penetration.

Now in its 12th Edition, Future Mobile Handsets is the definitive guide to the worldwide handset market and provides an in-depth analysis of mobile handset device trends, key industry issues, market segmentation, advances in hardware technology and software solutions, and comprehensive market data and five-year forecasts.

Some of the current industry-critical issues covered in this new edition include:
> Just how much has the global recession affected the outlook for handset sales volume?
> Who are the major players in the handset value chain and why?
