News About Low-Tier Market Share, Next T-Mobile’S Aim
While its rivals, Verizon and AT&T, are struggling to conquer and control the high end smartphones market, T-mobile has begun to change its aim to the lower class market. Although the carrier will still be manufacturing some high end smartphones for more profitable chance, it doesn’t change the fact that the cheaper market has now been T-mobiles interest. The policy was so-made because T-mobile saw a little chance of winning against Verizon’s iPhone or AT&T’s Droid families, though it doesn’t meant they have given up either.
“We are working with our vendors on this one to drive the price of smartphones down,” said Philipp Humm, T-Mobile’s chief executive. “Not every customer is going to want or need high-end handsets.” He emphasized. Humm is the main person in the company who is responsible for the policy. Ever since he was promoted to be T-mobile’s new CEO six months ago, he’s been so devoted to make a reversal strategy.
The company will release some low-cost smartphones which are prized not more than $100, it is a half of the usual smartphones should cost. And as the opening move, T-mo offered a limited 200-megabyte data plan for $10 a month last October, making it among the lowest in the industry. Hopefully, as the policy is being made into real, T-mobiles will successfully stand its subscribers.
