Introduction

Abstract

In the face of the declining growth in the global feature phone market after the market reaches its maturity, Smartphone application Ics are expected to play a key role in bolstering the future growth of the mobile phone application IC industry. With their competitiveness in the low- and mid-priced Smartphone segments, Taiwanese mobile phone application IC suppliers are expected to benefit from the increasingly rapid growth in those segments. This report provides insight into the development trends of the low- and mid-priced segments of the Smartphone market and the impact of those trends on corresponding IC suppliers in Taiwan, Europe, the United States and China.
