Blackberry Share

As global smartphone sales to end-users hit nearly 432 million units in the fourth quarter of 2016, once a market leader BlackBerry now virtually has a zero per cent share.

According to the market research firm Gartner, out of more than 431.5 million smartphones sold last year, about 200,000 were BlackBerry devices that were running on its own operating system but that gives it less than half the unit volume of the “other OS” category.

“This wasn’t hard to see coming given BlackBerry’s years-long decline, gradual shift toward Android and recent focus on services.” Microsoft’s Windows phones are not doing good either. The share of Windows fell from 1.1 percent to 0.3 percent in the last quarter of 2016.

Blackberry is No More: China’s TCL to manufacture its Coming Smartphones

The Canadian Company Blackberry has finally announced that it would stop manufacturing and design their mobile devices. The Company confirmed that it had signed a deal with China’s TCL Communication Technology to make its branded future smartphones.

The Canadian company Black Beery Limited was dropping hints since September this year and finally it has come up with a decision of dropping. TCL is the Chinese Hardware maker behind brands like Alcatel. However, Blackberry confirmed that TCL would make and sell its branded future smartphones globally.

The company also said, “The devices made by TCL which also makes Alcatel-branded mobile phones will be coupled with blackberry’s security software and service suite.”

In a press meet, Blackberry announced its formal long-term agreement with TCL, which says that TCL will be taking care of its design, manufacturing and marketing part. However, Blackberry is still working on licensing its security software and applications such as the Blackberry hub.

Moreover, this decision of the Canadian mobile company is not surprising at all because TCL had already associated with Blackberry for making two mobile devices Blackberry DTEK50 and DTEK60. Both the devices were spin-off designs by Alcatel, which means that we might get to see a similar strategy for the upcoming phones.

Now, TCL will be the exclusive international manufacturer and supplier of all future Blackberry-branded smartphones, except a few markets, namely India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh and Indonesia. Still, it is unclear what the company has planned for those exceptional countries? Maybe a different hardware partner will take care of making and vending phones over there.
