![]() Research firm Counterpoint cut growth expectations for global smartphone shipments in 2025 to 1.9% on Wednesday, down from its earlier forecast of 4.2%, citing uncertainties surrounding U.S. tariffs. Reuters: The downgrade signals challenges for manufacturers that already face weakening sales amid heightened geopolitical tensions and escalating tariff disputes. The research firm also revised year-on-year shipment growth from China down to near-flat, while Apple and Samsung’s (005930.KS), opens new tab shipments are expected to slow… Apple sells more than 220 million iPhones a year worldwide, with a fifth of total iPhone imports to the United States now come from India, and the rest from China. MacDailyNews Take: Counterpoint cites “uncertainties surrounding U.S. tariffs”for their lowered forecast. If you’re uncertain, how can you forecast global shipments? Answer: You can’t. Making shipment forecasts in the middle of worldwide trade negotiations is a fool’s errand.
