Probably because 90% of growth is occurring outside the EU.
Edit. It’s a fucking EU stated fact muppets
Do you think Apple and Samsung would stop selling 60% of the European phones? https://appleworld.today/2026/08/apple-now-has-34-of-europes-smartphone-market/
Also you’re the kind of useful idiot that we see all over the internet. Stop.
They obviously aren’t, so what’s your point?
If you resort to name calling, you’re a fucking idiot.

Growth isn’t the only important metric here.
It is to smartphone manufacturers
It’s not. Year on year sales can remain flat but they are still important to turnover.
Lol
Why ?
Because flat < growth
It’s not that deep
Obviously but that doesn’t mean that the flat number of year on year sales don’t matter. It’s a very important metric
So? These companies would just throw out 10% of the ‘growth’?
The EU could flip the scrip and get back to Nokia phones and real interactions. That way the data flow abroad would be minimised significantly.
Just like North Korea?
