One Percent of 2019 Phone Sales Will be 5G Capable

Strategy Analytics estimates that less than one percent of phones sold in 2019 will be 5G devices, but that share will grow to nearly 10 percent in 2020. “Price is the main concern for early adopters” says Ken Hyers, Strategy Analytics director.  “Consumers do not want to spend top dollar on a device when there are few usable networks yet.” 


The first devices will be premium- and high-tier devices, but by the end of 2020 there will be more mid-range devices available, especially in China” says Ville-Petteri Ukonaho, Strategy Analytics associate director. 

By 2025, 5G phone sales will exceed one billion units, the firm suggests.
