The International Data Corporation (IDC) estimated that global smartphone shipments will decline by 12.9% year-over-year to 1.1 billion units in 2026, according to its own release. Surging demand for memory chips, a key component in servers housed in AI datacenters, has led to a shortage in available supply for smartphone manufacturers. The IDC estimates that smartphone shipments will decline by a staggering 20.6% year-over-year in the Middle East & Africa and 13.1% in the Asia Pacific region (excluding China and Japan), in 2026.
