Pakistan’s local mobile phone manufacturing and assembly sector posted an 8 percent year-on-year (YoY) increase in output during November 2025, according to data released by the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority and compiled by Topline Securities.
Local manufacturers produced 2.49 million units from January to November, compared to 2.31 million units in the same period last year, as production began to normalize following earlier slowdown and inventory buildup.
Cumulatively, local manufacturing accounted for 93 percent of Pakistan’s mobile phone demand in 2025, down from 95 percent a year earlier.
Of the 27.6 million locally produced units, 53 percent (14.51 million) were smartphones, with the remainder (13.09 million) being 2G feature phones. This decline was largely attributed to a higher import mix following the launch of Apple iPhone 17.
The top locally assembled brands of 11M2025 included Infinix (3.47 million units), VGO Tel (3.07 million units), Vivo (2.57 million units), Itel (2.2 million units), Tecno (1.73 million units), Samsung (1.57 million units), Xiaomi (1.35 million units), Q Mobile (1.06 million units), Realme (1 million units), and G’Five (o.92 million units).
Looking ahead, Topline Securities expects phone sales to grow by 7-8 percent YoY over the next 12 months, supported by a stable PKR, easing inflation, and improving consumer purchasing power.
