On December 2, 2016, HMD Global, a startup founded mainly by a former Nokia employee, took over the rights to brand Nokia phones and since then has become familiar with Nokia phones.
Analyst: HMD sold 2.8 million smartphones globally in the third quarter of this year 16 Now that the HMD is more than a year old, the company has released a series of new products in 170 countries, including 6 smartphones and 5 feature machines, in more than 80 markets worldwide, but has never provided any official sales data since its inception So what about the specific sales? Some analysts gave the answer today.
Analyst firm Counterpoint Research estimates that HMD Global sold 13.5 million feature phones and 2.8 million smartphones in the third quarter of 2017, which means the company became the third-largest feature phone maker in the world and ranked 16th Smart phone sellers.
In contrast, analyst firm IDC data shows that HMD Global sold only 1.5 million smartphones in the first half of 2017. This substantial increase in sales is most likely due to the company's introduction of more models (such as the Nokia 2 and Nokia 8, etc.) and continue to expand the market globally.
Analyst: HMD sold 2.8 million smartphones globally in the third quarter of this year 16 Other analysts estimate that the company sold as many as 3.4 million smartphones in the third quarter.
In fact, this result is very impressive for a handset manufacturer that has only been established for a year now, and can only feel the feeling that people still have feelings about Nokia handsets.
