Sony Mobile

==Ericsson GE Mobile Communications==
===1989–1994===
In 1989, Ericsson's Radio Systems division formed a joint venture company with General Electric under the name of Ericsson GE Mobile Communications. The company consisted of all mobile phone activity of both companies in Sweden and USA. Its products were sold mostly under both Ericsson and GE brands. Due the severe cooperation problems between two companies and inability to break to the US cellular phone market, GE eventually left out of the joint venture in 1993, and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ericsson.

===1994–2001===
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications changed its name to Ericsson Mobile Communications and used its parent company's logo.
==Sony Ericsson==
