Acer Launch Smartphones In Asia

[ThaiLife]

Taiwan-based Acer launched a series of smartphones for the Asia-Pacific region yesterday, bridging the gap between its popular netbook business and the handheld business.

Company executives said Acer was banking on its experience as a leading computer brand to gain a share of the ever-crowded smartphone market. The unveiling will be followed by similar launches in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Australia and China, Acer said.

Acer first announced a move into the mobile phone market at Mobile World Congress in February.

About 200 million smartphones are sold each year. Acer believes the market will grow at 15 percent annually in the next five years, it said.

Our ambition is to be among the top five smartphone vendors in the world in the next three years
