When it comes to the analysts at Gartner, 5 of the dual sim gsm phones manufacturer, three from China by the end of the year will be from the top. No later than 2017, even seven of the top ten should come from the Middle Kingdom.
Lenovo, Huawei, ZTE, Xiaomi, oppo - the number of Smartphone manufacturers from China, whose products are observed, even in Western countries is growing rapidly and I believe that we can today not even guess which tech wave that breaks across Europe and the rest of the world into. If you are analyst – such as the boys and girls by Gartner - it looks maybe a little differently and can a picture of making themselves more, how the development is going in the next few months and years.
Gartner is right now with its forecast, then five will be in the top represented the end of the year, equal to three times Chinese manufacturers. You liked not predict which it wanted to be explicit because both Lenovo and Huawei ZTE also as Xiaomi could close together and all be represented among the first five manufacturers until the end of this year.
Gartner said that would be only the beginning of the dominance of China, because it here is, to produce high-quality equipment at low prices. Also, the Chinese companies that make it both our markets with smartphones at prices between 100 and 300 dollars to operate, as also the emerging markets with handhelds with at least $50. In this area, the Chinese are partly considerably better position than their competitors, what should reflect no later than 2014 in sales figures in Western countries.
When Hugo Barra - as a former Google veteran and now at Xiaomi employs - it speaks that Xiaomi is the Google of the future, then this is not taken safely from the air. The Samsung's and Apple's world are to look still part, believes times.
