Strategy Analytics 393.4 million v. Gartner's 399.6. Global Mobile-Phone Sales Declined 3% In 2001, Gartner Says** By Cecile Daurat Bloomberg 03/10 17:02 quote.bloomberg.com Mobile-phone sales fell 3 percent last year, their first decline ever, as phone companies cut subsidies on handsets and consumers snubbed new models, a market research company said. Sales declined to 399.6 million units in 2001, according to Dataquest Inc., a unit of Gartner Inc. Nokia Oyj, the world's No. 1 cellular-phone maker increased its market share to 35 percent from 30.6 percent in 2000. Phone makers shares slumped last year as demand waned and economies slowed. Nokia and rivals are counting on new models with color screens, faster Internet access and new features that allow users to swap images and music to revive sales in the second half of this year. ``We see a quite slow start in the first half of the year,'' said Ben Wood, an analyst at Gartner Dataquest. ``In the second half, we will start to see some market growth. The majors drivers will be color and new services such as multimedia messaging.'' Sales will rise this year from last, Wood said, declining to provide a more detailed forecast. Samsung Corp. had a 37 percent rise in unit sales, fueled by sponsorship campaigns and a diversification of its product range, Dataquest said. Ericsson AB slumped the most of the top five, with a 35 percent decline in handset sales. Its venture with Sony Corp., called Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications Ltd., introduced new phones earlier this month. - Eric -
