Powerful smartphone solutions unleashing new technology innovations

The growth of smartphone market shows that more people want to customize their handsets with applications that suit their interests and lifestyle. To realize consumers´ requirements, device manufacturers need something that has to have high-performing processor, high-performing mobile broadband modems as well as high performing connectivity technologies. It is a key for wireless platform vendor to offer complete platforms. The recent trend in the wireless industry has clearly been to transfer the platform development from the handset makers to platform companies such as ST-Ericsson. Companies like ST-Ericsson can master all the parts of the mobile platform to build complete, optimized systems integrating application processors, modems and connectivity. By offering the complete platforms, ST-Ericsson is powering a broad range of next generation smartphones, tablets, and other smart devices. These integrated solutions can then be sold to the whole market, rather than sold to limited individual customers.
