U.S. Mobile Phone and Smartphone Installed Base Forecast Update, 2023-2027
This IDC study analyzes the installed base of smartphone users in the United States by operating system (OS). It combines IDC’s extensive knowledge of smartphones, smartphone users, subscribers, subscriber growth, and challenges and opportunities for different operating systems. The findings in this document are based on information gathered from primary and secondary sources during the past six months.“The decline in the new smartphone market over the past two years has started to impact the overall installed base negatively,” said Anthony Scarsella, research manager with IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker. “With refresh rates elongating, new users in the installed base are growing at a smaller rate than previously forecast. However, the decline is minimal due to growth and popularity of refurbished devices as they continue to impact new sales while keeping the installed base stable moving forward.”
