Trang 2I INTRODUCTION:
Martin Cooper ( now chairman, CEO, and co-founder of Array Comm Inc) said "People want to talk to other people - not a house, or an office, or a car Given a choice, people will demand the freedom to communicate wherever they are, unfettered by the infamous copper wire It is that freedom we sought to vividly demonstrate in 1973" He was the first man who published the first Cell Phone of the world- MOTOROLA Dyna TAC 8000X
At that time, Nokia- a mobile network company- published the first Nokia multimedia production- the Nordic Mobile Telephony (NMT), the world's very first multinational cellular network in 1981 Nokia started the development of GSM phones Beginning of the 1990 brought about an economic recession in Finland Eventually, the company decided to leave consumer electronics behind in the 1990s and focused solely on the fastest growing segments in telecommunications- CELL PHONE Due to this Nokia increased its sale of GSM phones that was enormous This was the main reason for Nokia to not only be one of the largest but also the most important
companies in Finland As per the sources, in August 1997, Nokia supplied GSM systems to 59 operators in 31 countries
The first Nokia‟s Cell Phone was the Nokia 1011 lauched on November 10, 1992 The black handset
measured 195 x 60 x 45mm and featured a monochrome display and an extendable antenna The memory could hold
99 phone numbers It did not yet employ Nokia‟s characteristic ringtone that was only introduced in 1994 The phone operated in the 900 MHz band The Nokia 1011 continued production until 1994, when it introduced the Nokia 2100 model as successor From 1992 to 1998, Nokia successfully developed the mobile network and
produced portable phones
Trang 3As the technology development grew fast, North America had a spotty 3G network that has only really been revamped recently in order to deal with increasing demands for faster loading speeds from mobile customers, whereas Asia and most of Europe have had proper 3G networks in place for some time This has led to a revolution
in 3G phones from 2007 until now, with more due to come out in 2009
To meet the demand to the massive market of 3G mobile phones, Nokia had developed a series of Smart phones from its very first portable phones with simple functions This led to the appearance of NOKIA N9 with
3000 functional developments
II CURRENT MARKETING SITUATION:
As the cell phone- using- demand, people need fast-high- tech- cell phones that had functions that satisfy whatever they want whenever they need and wherever they are Nokia is losing its smart phone market by the beginning of 2010 because there are still not many huge- break through- developments in designs and technology whereas Apple, HTC, Samsung are the first flag ships in the smart phone- market When Stephen Elop announced his new strategy as CEO of Nokia he talked of a crucial “battle of ecosystems” What he was referring to was the battle between Google (Android), Apple (iOS) and a potential third player in the competition to become the
dominant operating system used to power smartphones and their apps Elop decided to abandon further development
of Nokia‟s sum MeeGo operating system, preferring instead to partner with Microsoft in developing the Windows mobile system

3 Competitive Review
Besides Nokia, there are many famous brands that create their own specific products such as Apple,
Samsung, HTC, Sony Ericsson This lead to a high competitive smartphone market and create difficult pressure
on Nokia
Apple
o Advantages: Iphone 4S is stylish and popular all over the world Iphone 4S displays 640 x 960 pixels onto
a 3.5-inch screen, The Apple iPhone 4S uses a dual-core 1 GHz A5 processor to drive iOS 5, The Apple iPhone 4S records video at a maximum of 1920x1080 (1080p HD) The Apple iPhone 4S appears to have generated very strong interest in the aftermath of the passing of Steve Jobs The initial sales figures have it outselling all previous versions of the Apple iPhone, the Apple iPhone 4S comes with a huge improvement
in performance over the preceding Apple iPhone 4 Talk time up to 14 hours for 2G network and 12 hours for 3G networks
Trang 11o Disadvantages: Apple iPhone 4S 64GB retails at about $850, The item weighs about 140g, Iphone 4S use the Li-Po battery 1420maH, standby time is 200 hours for both 2G and 3G networks, iphone 4S doens’s support JAVA, WAP There are only two colors for consumers (black and white)
Samsung
o Advantages: GalaxyS2 is popular in Asia Samsung created a break through step when publishing the Galaxy S The galaxy S2 weighs 116g, dimension: 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5mm, Galaxy S2 uses dual core 1,2Ghz A9, Ram 1GB, camera 8MP, Galaxy S2’s screen is 4,2 inches Galaxy S2 uses the most up-to-date operating system: Android Gingerbread 2.3 Galaxy S2 has more room and features better
technology for superior reproduction, contrasts and brightness Galaxy S2 had more downloadable apps than N9 Battery last for 8,5 hours for talk time and 610 hours for standby time Samsung has a better processor
o Disadvantages: The Galaxy S2 is something of a logical progression from the Galaxy S, being in turn inspired by the iPhone, the format is the same glass-topped slab but Samsung has stripped things down and made it as thin and light as possible Gorilla Glass is again used here but the resolution is a little lower at 480 x 800 pixels, as is the pixel density at 218ppi Galaxy S2 is not supported for 64GB (only
32 GB micro SD) Samsung is worse at screening Galaxy S2 costs $750
