The Taiwanese Mobile Phone Industry, 1Q 2014: Branded Vendors


This research report presents mobile phone shipment volume forecast and recent quarter review of major Taiwanese branded vendors. The report includes shipment volume and value, ASP, vendor volume ranking, shipment by brands, and price trend. Also provided are shipment breakdowns by system technology, operating system, display technology, panel size, shipment destination, and production location. The content of this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with Taiwanese mobile phone branded vendors. The report finds that Taiwanese branded mobile phone shipmen volume declined slightly in the fourth quarter of 2013, mainly due to HTC’s lack of new follow-ups to compete vis-à-vis with rivals like Apple and Samsung. While competition in China becomes fiercer, developing other emerging markets in an effort to satisfy local market demand for mobile phones may be the key to gain traction in those markets. Looking ahead to the 2014, helped by the launch of HTC’s M8 and subsequent offerings as well as broad product portfolios of ASUS and Acer particularly in mid-to-low-ends, it is forecast that shipment volume of Taiwanese branded mobile phones will top around 20.8 million units, slipping merely 1% year-on-year.

The Taiwanese Mobile Phone Industry, 1Q 2014 Report

This research report presents mobile phone shipment volume forecast and recent quarter review of major Taiwanese contract manufacturers.

The report includes major contract manufacturers’ shipment volume and value, ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, customer ranking, shipment by maker, and price trend. Also provided are shipment breakdowns by system technology, operating system, display, panel size, and production location.

The content of this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with Taiwanese mobile phone industry contract manufacturers. The report finds that the shipment volume of Taiwanese contract manufacturers soared in the fourth quarter of 2013, driven mainly by the increased market demand for iPhones toward year-end.


Apple’s iPhones continues to take the lion’s share in Taiwanese makers’ shipment, followed by Xiaomi and Sony in the fourth quarter of 2013. It should be noted that LTE models constituted over 70% of total contract manufactured mobile phone shipments in the fourth quarter of 2014, up from around 52.6% in the third quarter.

The Taiwanese contract manufacturers’ mobile phone shipment volume, though peaked in the fourth quarter, is forecast to have subdued in the first quarter of 2014 and will not see appreciable growth until iPhone 6 launch in the second half of 2014.
