Of course growth is cooling. It has to happen sometime: sooner or later everyone who wants/needs a device with a particular set of capabilities....has bought one. Smartphone hardware has improved in the past few years to the point that even devices that are a 1-2yrs old are likely to provide adequate performance for the next few years as well. You can't sell 1.4 billion phones annually to a population of 7 billion humans indefinitely.
Don't get me started on "vendor lock-in" and planned obsolescence.....
