ZURICH: Swiss-American technology accessories maker Logitech could benefit from a slowdown in the smartphone market, chief executive Bracken Darrell said after it reported its best annual retail sales growth in five years. 

"From our perspective it's wonderful if there's a slight slowdown in the mobility and smartphones, for example. It just means consumers will have more money to spend on other things that can improve the experience. Right now, we're seeing even growth on mice and keyboards," he told CNBC in an interview.
