CTIA Blog: The Amazing Smartphone: No Guts, No Glory
By: Rob Mesirow, Vice President & Show Director, CTIA-The Wireless Association
No matter how you slice it, the wireless industry has undergone – and continues to go through – an amazing transformation. As of June 2012, there were almost 322 million wireless devices in the U.S., and almost 41 percent of them were smartphones (almost 131 million).
This is a 37 percent increase from the previous year, when there were almost 96 million smartphones in the U.S.
