TOKYO: NTT DoCoMo Inc, Japan's largest mobile operator, will select Sony Corp, Sharp Corp and Fujitsu Ltd smartphone models for its main winter product lineup, sources familiar with the situation said. 

Samsung Electronics Co, which along with Sony supplied one of the two models for the main summer lineup, will be excluded as it lacks a new flagship model for this winter season, and after its Galaxy S4 fell short of DoCoMo's summer target despite strong sales for Sony's Xperia A, the sources said.
