Mobile Devices - The Opportunity
The characteristics of the mobile communications market over the next five years represent an attractive opportunity, as several trends converge:
- Trillion dollar market size
- High growth rates:
- Feature phones in developing markets
- Smartphones and media tablets in developed markets
- Shift from basic phones to smart communication devices, and from basic cellular service to mobile broadband
- Increasing sales of cheap unbranded “white-box” handsets in emerging regions
- Meteoric rise of Android
Kunekt sees a unique opportunity in combining the affordability of “white-box” handsets with the attractiveness of branded Android phones. Kunekt is pioneering a new market segment, by:
- Cutting the costly marketing and administrative overhead of the large global brands, while simultaneously
- Offering upwardly mobile customers in developing countries the prestige and trustworthiness of a recognized brand
This best-of-both-worlds strategy offers strong competitive and profitability advantages.
