2009
Smartphone sector grows, as other mobile markets fall.
The end of 2008 saw an average decline of handset demand by approximately 7%. People were opting to move onto cheaper tariffs rather than take out new mobile phone deals a recent report has said. There were some areas of growth, particularly relating to smartphones, an area that has seen year on year growth over recent periods. Phones such as the Blackberry 8900 curve are proving to be very popular with business men and women, as is the Samsung Pixon a smartphone launched by the Korean giants before Christmas. There are also some major releases expected this year of course. The Nokia N97 is expected to be Nokia’s biggest selling handset of 2009 in the smartphone arena. It will take advantage of the new Simbian platform and will come complete with a full qwerty keypad and a touch screen. We think that these handsets which are free on many of the higher end mobile phone contracts will start to take the market by storm as other sectors falter. These are 3 of the best in our opinion.
