Don't be surprised, but Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ ) is about to get back into the smartphone business, even after a spectacular failure and exit in 2011. Shortly after taking over as CEO, Meg Whitman said it was unlikely that HP would ever be in the smartphone business again, a stance that she backtracked on a year later when she acknowledged that HP has to "ultimately offer a smartphone."
In an interview with The Indian Express, HP's director of consumer devices in the Asia Pacific region, Yam Su Yin, confirmed the re-entry into the smartphone market, although declined to specify when the PC giant would make the move. The exec added, "HP has to be in the game."
She acknowledges that due to prior missteps, HP is awfully late to the smartphone market. Because of that tardiness, HP needs to offer a different value proposition than what's currently available in the market, but there "are still things that can be done" and that HP will offer a "differentiated experience."
