The average residual error of up and down envelope is 6.1825% from 2003 to 2007, and the predicted market share in 2012 is 3.334%. The forecasting results showed that the market share of HTC will decrease in the future. The founding of research offers meaningful information for HTC to decide the new strategy. For government, the result could also help to implement adequate policies to support the development of smartphone industry in the future.
