Motorola acquires fourth largest smartphone market share in India
Within a year of re-entering the Indian smartphones scene, Motorola has beaten Nokia in smartphone market share, according to analysts firm Canalys. In the second quarter of 2014, Motorola has emerged as the fourth largest seller of mobile phones pushing Finnish firm Nokia – now known as Microsoft Mobile – to the fifth slot.
Lenovo-owned Motorola shipped 955,650 smartphones to India in Q2, while Nokia managed to ship only 633,720 units. In Q1, however, Nokia was on the fourth place with 583,160 units while Motorola had only shipped 379,310 smartphones.
It looks like Motorola’s competitively priced Moto G and Moto E phones have helped the company revive its fortune in one of the world’s largest smartphone market. Motorola has further slashed the price of its hot-selling Moto G by two grand to pit it against similarly priced Chinese and Taiwanese smartphones.
According to the Canalys report, Samsung sold 4.4 million smartphone in India in Q2 while Micromax and Karbonn sold around 3.1 million and 1.07 million units respectively.
