According to a recent report from
Canaccord Genuity their February wireless store surveys indicated normal
seasonal trends with softer smartphone sales versus December quarter monthly sales rates. While sales were seasonally slower in February, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)
and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (KRX:005930) maintained dominant
market share positions. Consistent with the past several months, their
surveys indicated an increasing mix of LTE smartphones led by sales of
the LTE iPhone 5 and the LTE versions of Samsung’s Galaxy SIII and Galaxy Note II smartphones.
Further, their February handset market surveys and conversations with global distributors at MWC indicated solid sales in the Chinese smartphone market during Chinese New Year with continued strong sales of affordable 3G smartphones.
