Global smartphone sales volume will keep downturn track in 2019, but rebound to +4% YoY in 2020. The weak performance is the combined result of extended smartphone replacement cycle, increased smartphone prices, industry consolidation, saturated China and US market, as well as economic headwinds / uncertainties etc. We expect the growth rate will pick up from 2020 onwards mainly driven by 5G and new hardware innovations. Worldwide smartphone sales volumes will steadily expand by +22% from 2018 to 2023. Asia Pacific remains as the biggest region, followed by North America. The three largest smartphone countries in the next five years will be China, India and the USA, due to their massive populations.
