BlackBerry ‘UK’s No 1 smartphone’

Research in Motion claims its BlackBerry handsets were the best-selling in the UK for the second year running.

The latest data shows that the troubled BlackBerry averaged 27.7 per cent market share in 2011, and that it hit 8.5 million UK subscribers. Worldwide the number of subscribers grew by 35 per cent year on year, to 75 million in December 2011, driven by growth among young people and in the developing world.

BlackBerry Managing Director for the UK and Ireland, Stephen Bates, said that RIM had dominated pre-paymarket in particular. “We’ve moved the market up by around 40 per cent by offering a proposition people can see the value in,” he said.

Government urging for Mobile Phone Recycling

More and more people are being urged now by the Government towards recycling their old mobile phones.

The UK citizens are being encouraged to recycle electronics including the mobile phones.  In order to have as many UK residents as possible to recycle their old products after the holidays are over now, a new campaign has been launched by The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills.

Millions of new electronics are received by Britons on Christmas every year, however sadly, less than 30 per cent ever get recycled.  The old devices are either lying around unused or get disposed off unethically causing major environmental concerns.  It is worthwhile to mention that mobile phones as well as electronics get passed down to younger generations at home, but still most of them lie unaccounted for.
