In addition, factors such as rising penetration of 4G networks and increasing adoption of mobile payments are also contributing to the growth of this market. By type, the global basic phones market is segmented into Java, BREW, and other types.

Product Definition:
A basic phone is a mobile phone that has fewer features than a smartphone. Basic phones typically have a numeric keypad, no touchscreen, and limited internet capabilities. They are often used by seniors or people who don't need the features of a smartphone.
JAVA:
JAVA is a programming language that is used to develop applications for mobile phones, personal computers and other devices. It was developed by Sun Microsystems in 1995. The growth factor in the basic phones market is that it allows developers to create applications with better user interface which gives an advantage over other application development languages such as C and C++.
BREW:
The Brew is a software platform that enables users to run third-party applications on their smartphones. It is an open source code which has been developed and released by the Blackberry Ltd company for its' phones. The main objective of this platform was to enable developers to create apps for the phone which were not supported by the official Android Market or iOS App Store.
Application Insights:
The travelers segment held the largest market share of over 40% in 2017. The rising number of tourist arrivals at airports across the world has led to an increased demand for GSM phones that offer features such as dialing, texting, and internet access. Furthermore, introduction of low-cost long-distance calls using these phones has boosted their usage among frequent travelers.
The companies & organizations application segment is expected to register a significant CAGR during the forecast period owing to increasing adoption by businesspersons and professionals for conference calling and remote working purposes. In addition, growing penetration of this type of basic phone is encouraging companies offering office communication services to enter into partnerships with mobile network operators or internet service providers who provide premium data plans along with these basic phones. This will drive industry growth over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to high disposable income and increasing adoption of smartphones. Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing regional market from 2018 to 2030, due to improving economic conditions and rising disposable incomes especially in developing countries such as India, China, Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand. Moreover, growing penetration of mobile phones along with favorable government initiatives for basic services tax (BST) has contributed significantly towards growth across this region. For instance; In India BSNL launched ‘Free Phone Program’ where they provided free landline phones on Rentennummer (ENUM) basis so that people can have a permanent number while traveling outside home area code thus enabling them avoid roaming charges within country & abroad etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from rural areas: The growth of the basic phones market is mainly attributed to the increasing demand from rural areas. This can be attributed to the fact that these phones are affordable and easy-to-use, which makes them popular among first-time users and those who are not comfortable with using smartphones.
- Rising penetration of teledensity: Another key factor driving the growth of this market is the rising penetration of teledensity in developing countries, where a large population still does not have access to mobile services. This provides a huge potential for basic phone manufacturers to expand their operations in these regions.
- Proliferation of low-cost models: A major trend observed in this market is the proliferation of low-cost models, especially those that come with features such as FM radios and torchlights. This has helped in widening the appeal of basic phones among consumers across different income groups.
