Overview:

The global smartphone market declined its fastest ever, down 13% YoY in Q1 2020. This is the first time since Q1 2014, that the smartphone market has fallen below 300Mn units in a quarter. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the signs of any recovery that the market started showing in Q4 2019. COVID-19 has disrupted the implementation plans of 5G in some countries, with auctions being postponed in markets like Spain and India. However, led by Huawei, the growth of 5G in China remains as expected. As the situation returns to normal, the 5G sales will be further driven by OEMs. This is likely to be complemented by SoC players launching cheaper 5G-capable chipsets. Also, the role of operators will be key in pushing it. 5G is likely to help rate of recovery during the second half of 2020. In this uncertain scenario, it becomes even more important for all the ecosystem players to keep a close watch on the industry.
