Below are some of the larger companies in industry offering cell phone, handset electronics contract manufacturing outsourcing services.
- Celestica
- Elcoteq
- Flextronics

OEM cell phone/handset manufacturers continue to expand their supply chain into the outsourcing model. Recently, some contract manufacturing companies have cited some profit and revenue concerns as OEMs are shifting their product mix more toward lower-end phones.
With this trend shift, contract manufacturers that are vertically integrated will reap greater benefits than their non-vertically integrated competitors as total outsourced volume increases and the percentage of higher content (i.e., more complex) cell phones decreases.
Increasing business model vertical integration is taking place with Flextronics, Sanmina-SCI, and Jabil.
