Thanks to the monopoly on the LTE baseband chip market over the past four years, Qualcomm's revenue share rose to 66% during the quarter. In addition, in 2012, Qualcomm's mobile phone chip market share reached 31%, and it has become the leader in the mobile phone chip market for five consecutive years. This year, it will reach the top again for six consecutive years.
2013 Q3 Qualcomm baseband chip revenue share reached 2/3
Recently, Strategy AnalyTIcs mobile phone component technology (HCT) service released the latest research report "2013 Q3 baseband chip market share tracking: Qualcomm draws two-thirds of the revenue share." In 2013, the global cellular baseband processor market in Q3 increased by 10.3% compared with the same period of last year, and the market size reached 4.9 billion US dollars. Strategy AnalyTIcs estimates that Qualcomm, MediaTek, Intel, Spreadtrum and Broadcom have taken the top five market share. Qualcomm maintains market dominance with a 66% revenue share, with MediaTek and Intel followed by 12% and 7% respectively.
In this regard, senior analyst Sravan Kundojjala said: "By benefiting from the monopoly of the LTE baseband chip market over the past four years, Qualcomm's revenue share rose to 66% during the quarter. The $1.4 billion invested in research and development helped Qualcomm obtain More than 95% of the LTE baseband chip segment has a revenue share. Although Qualcomm's LTE baseband technology and market share leadership is being questioned, Strategy AnalyTIcs believes that certain competitors' products are ready for production, especially at low to medium The end price market has the potential to grab Qualcomm's market share in 2014."
Stuart Robinson, Director of Technical Components Services at Strategy AnalyTIcs, commented: "Strategy Analytics believes that Broadcom has the potential to compete with Qualcomm in key LTE baseband chips in 2014. In the baseband chip market, Broadcom is still a small vendor, if it wants to be in 2014. Being shaped into an important company, we can't stand any mistakes. We believe that only in 2014, the LTE baseband chip will work successfully to ensure the long-term prospects of Broadcom's mobile and wireless business units."
Christopher Taylor, Director of SA Radio Frequency and Wireless Components (RFWC) Services, said: "Recently, state-owned Tsinghua Unisplendour has acquired low-cost Chinese baseband chip supplier Randy Microelectronics and Spreadtrum, which took over the baseband chip in 2013. Ranked second. With the low cost advantage and strong capital of Tsinghua Unisplendour, the combination of RADI Microelectronics and Spreadtrum has the potential to challenge Qualcomm, a global manufacturer."
Related news review: The baseband chip market increased slightly by 6% in the second quarter.
In October, market research firm Strategy Analytics released the "2013 Q2 Baseband Chip Market Share Tracking" report. In 2013, the global cellular baseband chip market in Q2 increased slightly by 5.4% compared with the same period of last year, and the market size reached 4.4 billion US dollars. Qualcomm, MediaTek, Intel, Spreadtrum and Broadcom have taken the top five market share. Strategy Analytics estimates that Qualcomm's revenue share in the cellular baseband chip market reached a record high of 63%, followed by MediaTek and Intel with 13% and 7% respectively.
Senior analyst Sravan Kundojjala said: "The strong demand for Qualcomm LTE and LTE-A baseband chips in the Q2 market in 2013 led to a 63% revenue share. LTE baseband chips accounted for more than 40% of Qualcomm's total shipments during the quarter. We expect Qualcomm to further increase the proportion of LTE baseband chips in its total shipments."
Stuart Robinson, Director of Strategy Analytics Mobile Phone Components Technical Services, commented: "In 2012, Q2, due to the decline in demand for functional mobile phone baseband chips, the overall baseband chip shipments in the market fell by 6.5%, and smartphone baseband chip shipments exceeded the first. Feature phones. LTE and TD-SCDMA baseband chip shipments achieved three-digit growth, while GSM/GPRS/EDGE, UMTS, CDMA and iDEN baseband chip shipments declined compared to the same period last year."
Christopher Taylor, Director of RF and Wireless Components (RFWC) Services, Strategy Analytics, said: "The LTE baseband chip market is still looking forward to another strong supplier. We think Intel, Broadcom, Ericsson, Divine Electronics, MediaTek, NVIDIA and Spreadtrum Both have the potential to gain multi-mode LTE market share in 2014. However, as Qualcomm rapidly advances its highly integrated multi-mode LTE-A chips in the market, challenging Qualcomm's leadership position is a daunting task for these vendors."
The mobile phone chip market share has also reached the top for five consecutive years, and this year will be six consecutive years.
According to the report of market research institute iSuppli in February 2013, the market share of Qualcomm mobile phone chips reached 31% in 2012, and it has become the leader in the mobile phone chip market for five consecutive years. Samsung ranked second with 21% share. The two companies together account for more than half of the global mobile phone chip market.
In addition to Qualcomm and Samsung, the top 10 mobile phone chip manufacturers include: MediaTek, Intel, Skyworks, TI, ST Ericsson, Renesas Electronics, Spreadtrum and Broadcom. They account for 34% of the mobile phone chip market share. The top 10 vendors accounted for 86% of the market.
According to the report, Spreadtrum and Broadcom have developed rapidly and ranked among the top 10 in the global mobile phone chip market for the first time. Samsung's progress is also very fast. The old chip maker Texas Instruments has the biggest decline, with its market share falling from 20% in 2007 to 4% now. In contrast, Spreadtrum's market share increased by 370% during the same period.
In 2013, although specific data has not yet been announced, it is not difficult to foresee that Qualcomm's re-launch.
