We are playing a vision-led pivotal by creating brilliant experiences through flagship and premium solutions for everyone, basis their diverse and changing demands. Today, we can proudly say that MediaTek is becoming ubiquitous in the entire smartphones and smart devices ecosystem,” said Anku Jain, Managing Director, MediaTek India.
Speaking at the event, Tarun Pathak, Research Director, Counterpoint Research said, “5G smartphones have gained a good mind share in India, thanks to the continuous efforts of the smartphone value chain especially chipset players. Now with the networks rolling out, we expect this mind share to increase further and people eventually use 5G services. This will uncover a variety of features, some of which, we might be unaware of as of now. These features will further diffuse in the mass market segment faster, driving the overall consumer experience and expectations. Chipset players will continue to play a major role in driving this trend”.
Sharing key highlights from the ‘TECHARC INDIA CONNECTED CONSUMER REPORT 2023’, Faisal Kawoosa- Techarc, said, “5G is expected to be the bedrock technology of innovation driven by advanced computational capabilities driven by AI and ML that will be powered by sophisticated processors in smart devices. The Indian connected consumer is excited about the advent of 5G in the smart devices ecosystem that will elate the overall experience. Albeit it comes with concerns around privacy and limited interoperability. The market is slowly moving beyond entertainment segment, and we are expecting to see more of comfort and convenience devices forming the demand in 2023 and beyond.”
According to Prabhu Ram, Head, Industry Intelligence Group, Cybermedia Research (CMR), “India today has a strong ecosystem of 5G capable smartphones. As 5G gets rapidly democratized beyond value for money and into affordable smartphone segments, it will be truly transformative for India and India’s digital economy. 5G smartphones will break down the geographic, social and economic barriers, enabling citizens to get access to quality education, healthcare, financial services, and public citizen services, amongst others.”
