China made mobiles revolution in Pakistan is now overcoming Pakistani markets specially the cellular industry. Initially disposable mobile phones were launched and now you can easily get the first copy of any well known mobile phone in 1/4th of its cost.
QMobile has captured most of the market share of well known companies. Even samsung is now competing QMobile for its different models. What a developer needs to understand is that how can you make your app useful for the common Pakistanis. We can see the growing industry of China made phones, so the focus should be the apps which can run on these mobile phones.
Windows Phone 7, Android cannot compete to these cheaper phones as the law and order situation doesn't allow a common man to buy such a costly phone even though he can afford it. The IT students should develop mobile apps focusing the operating systems of mobile phones which are commonly being used. Mostly java OS are used and a developer can build apps on J2ME for these phones. learning the technology of android and win ph 7 is good but if you want your apps to be run and used publicly then think out of the box..!
Remember that these phones are available in market at very low cost. and apps for such mobile phones will definitely be encouraged.
Or you can make an app store of such mobile phones where people can upload apps for these phones :)
