Vestel is already one of the largest TV manufactures in Europe and now
it seems the company is venturing into the smartphone market.
As reported by Pocketlint, TV maker Vestel is planning to expand into the smartphone industry.
Talking at the IFA Global Press Conference 2014, Vestel’s CEO Turan Erdogan said, “If you're not in mobility or connectivity, you're dead," before confirming that Vestel would be launching a range of smartphone devices in August 2014.
The head of the TV-maker also candidly stated his doubts about curved televisions saying: "I've been in the industry for 26 years and we were always trying to make the TV flat. Now we're trying to make it curved."
Erdogan went on to say, "I hope it's not going to be a flop like 3D TV."
Backing up his disregard for 3D, Erdogan then said that only 12 per cent of 3D TV owners use the 3D feature.
You may not have heard of Vestel before but it claims 20.3 per cent market share of LCD TVs in Europe, behind leaders Samsung.
At the moment its unsure where you’ll see Vestel’s smartphones, but they'll be on the market beginning this August and will feature in Vestel's usually large presence at IFA in Berlin this coming September.
