Growing adoption of smartphones and tablets: a key market driver

Smartphones, along with tablets, are accountable for the growth of semiconductor memories. Over the last decade, the global smartphone market has seen a massive surge in shipments, from 174 million units in 2009 to 1.75 billion units in 2017. Almost all the leadig players in the smartphone segment registered substantial growth during 2009-2017. The overall tablet market also grew massively in terms of shipments, from 19 million units in 2010 to over 213 million units in 2017.



With the growing adoption of smartphones, companies are adding extra features and applications to differentiate their products from other manufacturers. Furthermore, the 4G rollout in leading nations such as China, France, Germany, Japan, India, Singapore, the UK, and the US has resulted in the deployment of long-term evolution (LTE (News - Alert)) technology in the market. The technology enables mobile devices to deliver high-quality services such as high-speed data traffic, supporting internet browsing as well as voice and video communication to smartphone users. Manufacturers are integrating additional features such as gesture control, fingerprint scanners, image scanners, and GPS into the devices. This is increasing the demand for NAND flash memory, which is used as code storage media for smartphones and tablets.

According to a senior analyst at Technavio for embedded systems research, "The demand for NAND flash is dependent on the growing penetration of smartphones and tablets in emerging markets, complete penetration in mature markets, as well as refresh rates, i.e., repurchase cycles of smart devices."
