New growth
As more people switch from feature phones to smartphones, new areas of tech sector growth will open up for all smartphone makers, regardless of their current position in emerging markets. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), for instance, can capitalize on the shift once consumers in developing markets are used to smartphones and the demand for more features increases.
