In 2013, the Chinese mobile phone maker to rely on the domestic
market to become the world's fifth-largest smartphone maker, behind
Samsung, Apple, LG and Huawei. Association will naturally not be
satisfied with this, in fifth place, far from one or two fame rings, but will continue to expand market share must-sea tactics.
Held recently in Nanjing "2014 Tianyi phone fair and mobile
Internet Forum", he said, 2014 is China 4G the first year, 4G shares are
expected to 6% in the first quarter soared to four quarters of 52%, for
which this Association has prepared a total of 70 different models of
smartphones, including more than 30 support 4G LTE network

America, rely on domestic sales are still not truly enhance global
Smartphone shipments, but "passive" Motorola sapped, it remains to be
seen whether the normal digestion.
