Today, Gartner released worldwide handset sales for second quarter 2011. To
be clear these are real sales. IDC and most other analyst firms measure
shipments into the channel, not sales to end users, which Gartner does.
These aren't good numbers for Microsoft.
As measured by smartphone operating system, globally, Windows Mobile/Phone 7
market share fell to 1.6 percent from 4.9 percent year over year -- that's
to 1.723 million units from 3.059 million. By comparison, Samsung's Bada's
share rose to 1.9 percent from 0.9 percent a year earlier, or to 2.056
million units from 577,000.
Samsung has a three-operating system strategy, which includes Android,
Windows Mobile/Phone 7 and its own Bada, which shipments grew by 355 percent
year over year, analyst firm Canalys reported last week. Samsung shipped
its first Bada smartphone in mid 2010. It's from Android and Bada that
Samsung is making some gains in emerging markets, where buyers are choosing
cheaper smartphones over feature phones.
"Smartphone sales continued to rise at the expense of feature phones"
Roberta Cozza, Gartner principal research analyst, says in a statement.
There Samsung is getting some lift, particularly at Nokia's expense as it
transitions to Windows Phone. Gartner described Nokia smartphone shipments
into the channel as "low". However Samsung's share gains weren't what they
could have been. While it rose to be No. 3 vendor in smartphones, its
overall share declined -- in part because of competition in price-sensitive
markets.
"Consumers in mature markets are choosing entry-level and midrange Android
smartphones over feature phones, partly due to carriers' and manufacturers'
promotions", Cozza says. Right, but they're not buying Windows Phone.
Android smartphone OS share was 43 percent from sales of 46.78 million.
Android's momentum is enormous. A year earlier, Android OS share was 17.2
percent and unit sales were 10.653 million.
Apple's iOS is doing well, but nothing like Android. Measured by smartphone
operating system, iOS ranks No. 3, behind Symbian, with 18.2 percent share
from 19.63 million units. By the way, when reconciling Gartner's sales
numbers with Apple's shipment figures, there is about 600,000 unit
difference -- meaning that the handset maker sold just about every iPhone it
could produce. Also noteworthy, in one of the most important markets
globally, China, Apple ranks seventh overall and third in smartphones --
stunning achievements four years after the first iPhone launched.
Combined, Android and iOS doubled their share of smartphone sales -- 62
percent from 31 percent a year earlier.
Samartphone sales rose 74 percent year over year. They accounted for 25
percent of all handset sales, up from 17 percent in second quarter 2010.
Broader market growth was slower but still with gusto. There were 428.7
million cell phones sold during Q2, up 16 percent year over year.
However, Gartner warned of trouble ahead. Manufacturers shipped 421.1
million handsets into the channel, a 4.4 percent sequential decline. The
Japanese earthquake and financial unrest are contributing factors, Gartner
asserts. Then there is sales fatigue in some markets. For example,
smartphone sales in Western Europe declined sequentially.
"We expect manufacturers and distributors to remain cautious about raising
their stock levels in the second half of 2011, following the recent
uncertainty on the world financial markets" Annette Zimmermann, Gartner
principal research analyst, says in a statement. Whoa, and iPhone 5 and new
Windows Phone "Mango" handsets ship soon. | w*****g
发帖数: 4298 | 2 Having gone through “first” wave, I can assure that it’s never a pleasant
discussion. Ranking peers is labors effort and time/energy sapping one. You
might have made great contribution but when those tasks are not on my
priority list; I won’t consider them as best effort because you made no
difference where it really matters. I don’t stop you from spending long
hours on those tasks because I hope that at end, you might come up with
great ideas to improve and ways to do things better.If you can show me
savings/benefits in a dollar numbers, you are doing me a HUGE help.
Help others and help team built better stuff. I do notice what everyone is
doing and whose helping whom. Helping others increases your “value”. I
also look out for people who are a show ponys and try to help others rather
than actually helping them. If you are one of them, I would suggest you to
start looking because you are never ging to get promoted.Its’ part of my
job to illustrate team’s accomplishments to leadership. I am one who’s
involved in those discussions. Do yourself a favor and try helping out other
group when they need something from you. This generates a good feeling and
people won’t mind when I suggest a better ranking.
Advertising/Marketing – Its’ my job that I have listen when people
showcase their accomplishments. I might think otherwise, but its’ my job to
listen.Try refreshing my memory with your accomplishments a month or so
before peer ranking.
For those people who crib on this site; you are a bad energy for the team
, - we don’t recognize your accomplishments because you hurt the team
spirit and energy and we are better off without you! | t*****y
