Mobile phone imports drop amid global market slowdown

AMMAN — Jordan imported around 480,000 mobile phones worth JD44 million in the first third of 2025, marking a decline from the 628,000 devices valued at JD51 million imported during the same period last year.
The Association for Mobile Phones and Accessories Investors (Vision) noted on Sunday that imports also fell short of 2023’s figure of some 521,000 devices worth JD53 million, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
Vision Chairman Ahmed Alloush attributed the trend to a wider variety of brands and technical specifications in the Jordanian market, offering consumers more choices across different price segment.
He added that the local trend aligns with global patterns, as the international smart phone market saw a slowdown in early 2025, with only 0.2 per cent growth and total shipments of 296.9 million units.
