The Competition in the Smart Phone Industry

The competition of the cell phone manufacturers has expanded to the fields outside the cell phone itself since the competition grew. Mobiles are attracting so many people, but a competition of cell phone eco-system has taken by the manufacturers, especially the competition between the suppliers of cell phone service. Many operators are updating the network at a fantastic speed. They update the 3G to 4G and define the price of
data service according to the different service level. The limited investment makes the customers not stable; therefore, the Competition Status of this market is very complex and easy to change dramatically.

Some large-scale competition is taken around the networking technology. On one hand, no matter whose technology, it will exist for a long time if customers choose this infrastructure. On the other hand, many corporations will not update their infrastructures in accord. How to manage the software of these networking devices is another question. IBM has its own advantages in the aspect which has the high loyalty of the customers. Moreover, these customers update the technology at regular intervals, because the updating will bring the economic influence. IMB put firstly stressed on the hardware, it had moved slowly to the management of eco-system in the past twenty years. Managers of the IBM said: "we concentrate on supporting the eco-system of the networking device, we support the operators. The eco-system is different from the device market, which mainly supply the software and management tools. We cooperate with operators and help them to prepare better.’’

Another goal that the manufacturers contend with each other is the developers and component manufacturers, including the semiconductor manufacturers, memory manufacturers, chip patent and the technology developers. The challenges that that the software developer faced just like the competition of the network company in the year of 2000. Although this competition is benefit the customers, companies should pay so much to win. Meanwhile, the component manufacturers are under great pressure. Their final achievement will not be complemented if any change is happen by the customer. The related integrated circuit is KSD5064.
