Growth isn't the only important metric here.

    It's not. Year on year sales can remain flat but they are still important to turnover.

    Because flat < growth

    It's not that deep

    Obviously but that doesn't mean that the flat number of year on year sales don't matter. It's a very important metric

    Maybe. It depends on if the market is growing or shrinking.

    Yes. Growth in Europe isn't the only metric that matters to smartphone manufacturers because they are still making money on the sales they make in Europe even if they aren't growing in the market.

    That's because there is no growth in Europe
