LATAM Smartphone Market Q1 2024 Highlights

Overview:

LATAM smartphone shipments surge 21.9% YoY in Q1 2024. This is the region’s third consecutive quarterly rise.  Part of the growth was because the sell-in in most markets in Q1 last year had declined to clear inventory. On the other hand, this year, operators and retailers were building inventory for Monther’s Day. All this managed to defy traditional seasonality and showed that the region’s sales channels were confident enough about the demand to build some inventory.

This report analyzes which brands are winning and which are losing in this growing market. How smartphone price segments have evolved and the OS technology contribution to it. Brazil and Mexico are the most important markets in the region. This report takes a closer look at them. We forecast a 10.3% increase in the 2024 smartphone.
