A majority of Sony Mobile's upcoming layoffs1 will be in China, but the company is not giving up the world's largest handset market, insiders have said.

索尼移动即将来临的裁员，其中大部分员工位于中国，但是索尼不会放弃这个世界上最大的手机市场。

At least 700 Chinese employees are going to lose their jobs at Sony's mobile subsidiary, and that account for over 70 percent of the company's global job-cutting plan, Sina.com.cn cited an unnamed source as saying on Wednesday (November 5, 2014).

The company is also reducing its business in China, including a plan to stop making smartphones that only target Chinese users.

However, Sony still says it is looking forward to bringing its China business, including smartphone business, to a new level.

Sony is out of the top 10 list of smartphone makers2 in China, with a third-quarter shipment of less than one million, according to market research firm Canalys.
