China market: More white-box handsets integrate g-sensors

Type your summary hereAccording to accelerometer (g-sensor) makers, the proportion of white-box handsets incorporating g-sensor chips is expected to reach 30-40% in the China market during the first quarter of 2009 thanks to decreasing g-sensor prices.

The proportion of built-in g-sensors in white-box handsets used to be very low due to the high g-sensor prices, but the quotes of g-sensors have dropped to US$0.8-0.9, boosting adoption, said the makers. In the China white-box market, built-in g-sensors have been adopted in both mid-range handsets and smartphones, the sources noted.
