Summary

IEMR's Japan Handset Vendor and Technology Forecast provides historical and forecasted (2003 - 2011) information on handset shipments by unit shipments, air interface, generation, and form factor in the Japan market.

Notable highlights of the 2Q08 Japan Handset Vendor and Technology Forecast include:

  • Unit shipments in Japan are expected to rise only modestly from 52.5 million units in 2008 to 55.5 million units in 2011.
  • In Japan, converged mobile devices account for over one-half of all handsets sold (compared to the worldwide average of 16% only). We expect this trend to continue during the forecast period with 27.8 million converged mobile devices shipped in the Japanese market by 2011.
  • In Japan, a shift from 2G to 3G occurred much earlier than in other parts of the world. Over the forecast period of 2008 - 2011, we expect 3G handset shipment in Japan to increase from 45.1 million to 49.4 million, accounting for 89% of all handsets sold in the Japanese market.

IEMR's Handset Forecasts are based on our proprietary, vendor-specific forecasting models. These models deploy multiple regression analysis and cross-impact matrices that estimate relationships between subscriber data, technology use and deployment data, overall economic and demographic changes expected in a particular region; and relate these to company operational and financial metrics.
