    Problem: Unsuccessful differentiation. Although HTC created different kinds of brands for their smartphones it failed to differentiate itself from competitors. It could not market the brand as a unique one in order to conquer customer loyalty as other companies did, such as Apple and Samsung. Hence, the failure of creating brand recognition set them apart from the differentiation strategy they were pursuing.…

    HTC will develop a single high quality smart phone, utilising the Android OS. Utilizing HTC’s core competency in phone manufacturing, an exclusive partnership will be established with Google in order to create a user interface specifically tailored to the Android OS. HTC will continue to be an ODM, while using the experience acquired in this market, to provide a very high quality product for all Mobile Phone markets (i.e. US, Europe, Asia). With the partnership with Google significantly reducing licensing costs, the production cost of the phone will be lowered and the equivalent profit made will be used in creating a strong R&D department, focusing on developing a line of quality products for HTC. In order to reach the customers, a dynamic distribution strategy will be undertaken: HTC will supply its smart phone to a single tier one mobile carrier in the US market, allowing a reduction in the cost of the phone for end users through subsidies. In the EU and Asian markets the smart phone will be supplied to every carrier, without creating any strategic distribution oriented partnership. The main risk of this alternative, is the possibility of achieving a low market penetration, by providing a high…

    Over the last decade, electronic-based companies such as Samsung and Apple have collaborated with cellular-phone carriers, and have studied the average consumer to find endless ways to improve the cellular phone. As a result, the smart phone was born. With their ability to provide users with instant access to communication, entertainment, Internet access, calendar, news, social media, and much more, the smart phone revolutionized and shifted the path of modern technology. In 2006, Apple began this revolution with their release of the iPhone. Being the first proper smart phone, many other companies attempted to mimic the unbeatable features and technology that Apple had included with the iPhone. Though many had failed in doing so, Google managed to keep up with the iPhone with their Android software. Soon enough, Google’s Android software became the dominant smart phone based software for smart phones not manufactured by Apple. Because of this, Android phones had become just as popular as iPhones. This paper will explore the similarities and differences between both Apple’s iPhone and Google’s Android.…

    A decrease from 8.9% to 4.8% in one year needs to be addressed (Ken Liu, 2012). By looking for the ability of how much the marketing mixes can contribute to the development of HTC, our results showed us that the product development can help more than market development. HTC lost its competitive power since it does not change the products much more, especially compared with IPhone4. People are more likely to buy a long-life phone in shopping places; advertisements can be produced to let people know HTC; and HTC has to find the strategies to cover the more customers in China.…
