2004年年初，全球最大的手机制造商诺基亚在中国手机市场的占有率一度下滑到五年来的最低点，在采取了降价和推出低价新机型等系列战略后，诺基亚第三季度的销售量大幅增长，尽管净利润下降了20%。
新华社报道如下：
Nokia Oyj, whose mobile-phone market share slid to a five-year low earlier this year, gained ground in the third quarter after the Finnish company cut prices and introduced cheaper models.
The world's largest handset maker's market share grew to 31 per cent in the third quarter from 29 per cent in the previous three months, said Strategy Analytics, a Boston-based researcher. Samsung Electronics Co, the No 3, closed in on second-placed Motorola Inc, and LG Electronics Inc passed Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications Ltd to become No 5.
Handset表示“电话听筒，手机，（手提式）步话机”。手机还有combined set和mobile-phone等说法。
