Samsung Predicts Slower Smartphone Growth

Samsung Electronics said it expects the recent growth in the smartphone market to slow in 2013 even as expansion in LTE coverage increases replacement demand in developed markets. In the tablet market, Samsung expects intensified competition amid "strong growth with emerging market expansion."

In the fourth quarter of 2012, sales in Samsung's IM (IT and mobile communications) division rose 51% year-on-year to 31.32 trillion Korean won (28.97 billion US dollars), fuelled by strong demand for its smartphones and tablets. source: Samsung presentation
