The only company that fell was BlackBerry for failing to understand the trends.

Others just didn't get the market right, some where chasing after apple style and lost it.

Nokia shot itself on the foot by using Windows when others are going Android. Right now Nokia is not even among the top 10 smartphone makers, Tecno has joined the league.
Actually, nokia is top ten
no 9 to be precise, HMD is producing Nokia smartphones

I still don't know why Nokia didn't buy Android back then.
They prolly thought windows os had a future due to them dominating the pc market.
And actually windows os was dope, it just wasn't widely accepted and it sunk nokia together with it

I think Google is cursed with acquisitions. They acquire and then it dies, except Android, YouTube... majority of the acquisitions die.

Africa is the reason why many of this chinko phones outsmarted all these giant phones like HTC, Sony Ericson, BB, etc soon Samsung will join them.

Why shouldn't I go for phone that is costing me 20-25k and can do what 70-150k phone can do?

Tecno, Infinix and some chinko phones came with same Android OS with longer battery life span and lesser price to outshine those so-called big phones like Samsung, HTC, Sony, Moto, BB Android and Nokia.

If you are not ready for creative destruction (innovation and invention) with good strategies your product would lag behind. Nokia and Blackberry had the opportunities to be one of the kings of smartphones, but they threw it away because they don't want to accept creative destruction.
Respect to those Chinese companies that came with the idea of selling cheaper phones to average income earners. Their strategic managers did a great job.

By the look of things, it seems that HTC dug its own grave. But they are not the ancestor of ALL smartphones. Their ancestry is limited to just Android devices. Even at that the first ever android device (Android 1.0) was the T-Mobile G1 which appeared some months before the HTC dream in 2008.

Made by who?

As long as the iOS is strictly for iPhones .
You have no ide how much power Apple has .

I said this exact same thing for Nokia and Blackberry back in the day and here we are.

They will have it in some years, Believe me

Even Uber had a major say until they started to mess up

Who on this planet would have believed for one second that the “ALMIGHTY BLACKBERRY” would just fizzle out into oblivion ? What went wrong with Blackberry ? Why did it collapse ? Why……? The questions on the minds of many are endless and confusing. BlackBerry is not just struggling, the company is on the brink of extinction ! That’s how bad it is. The problem with BlackBerry was that the company was too rigid and slow to adapt to the rapid changes in the smartphone industry. They locked down their OS and made it impossible for users to use popular apps like Whatsapp rather forcing BBM down their throats. It made one last attempt for survival when it dumped the BlackBerry OS and launched it’s first Android smartphone which came as a surprise but it was too late and the price was so high, it was a turn off for loyal fans who would have loved to buy it. The lesson you should learn from BB is simple. ADAPT OR DIE



Blackberry's downfall started when they made bbm available on all devices. They gave out the main special feature blackberry had. After then, the hype about blackberry and bbm nose-dived.

Come Rain or Sun .Sony is my best phone . They have so much technical and smart features since Java phones and even potential future tech. They haven't been boisterous like Samsung Lg and co.

Apple is now the first trillion dollar company... But believe me, they're next

I'll give them 3/4 more years and if they keep at being obsolete and Xiaomi/One Plus manage to infiltrate The US, they're in trouble
In your wildest dream shey?
Re: The Rise And Fall Of Some Of The Biggest Smartphone Giants In The World (PHOTOS) by sisisioge: 8:26am On Aug 03, 2018
I agree...it is so bad for Gionee that they do not have replacement component parts. If anything happens to the phone...that's the end of its life span.

Nope. T-Mobile is a German company, HTC is from China.
