Moblile Handset manufacturing companies are all set to face the onslaught of the iPhone in India. The iPhone is expected to be launched in September. The big three in the business, Nokia, Motorola and Sony Ericsson have already launched a slew of products that include music phones and touch screen products to face the iPhone.Experts in the field are of the opinion that Nokia will still maintain its leadership with a 40 percent market share globally. Nokia leads in virtually all the categories except the Internet Mobile Devices. The major device that challenges them in this category is the iPhone. Nokia has its N and E series of converged mobile devices to take on this challenge. This time around the Apple threat is more pronounced as the new iPhone is 3G and is being marketed in Asia as well as Europe.
According to a Nokia spokesperson, “The iPhone is an interesting device and it is great to see other companies share our vision of connected multimedia devices. We strongly believe that traditional single-purpose, non-connected devices such as MP3 players and cameras will be marginalised and overtaken by converged multimedia devices in the future”.
There are very exciting days for the mobile handset manufacturers ahead.
