In 2017, North America was evaluated as a mature market for smartphones. In North America, countries such as the U.S. and Canada witnessed decline in smartphone shipment in 2017 from the previous year. People in these countries were holding smartphones (smartphone lifecycle) for longer duration than they used to 3-4 years back. Moreover, repair and refurbishing services are steadily gaining importance in these countries. All this has in turn led to decline in smartphone shipment for the year 2017.

In Europe, the key countries contributing to the growth of the smartphone market (both in terms of value and volume) are Germany, France, and Italy.
