The smartphone marketshare story Empty The smartphone marketshare story

Post by Idéfix Thu Jul 26, 2012 1:59 pm

It is now more or less clear that Android has overtaken iOS as the dominant operating system for smartphones. Today there is more news that confirms the trend. Among people who moved from dumb phones (aka feature phones) to smartphones, 62% chose Android, while 25% chose an iPhone. Also, more than half of all dumb phone users who get a new phone are now getting smartphones. As more and more people switch from dumb phones to smartphones, it looks like Android's marketshare in smartphones will only get stronger.

Among people who already had a smartphone and got another smartphone, 54% picked an Android phone and 34% picked an iPhone.

you forgot to add footnotes.

footnote one: wiki link to what marketshare means

footnote two : wiki link where wiki links to irrelevent iphone vs android links are not going to be accepted as "arguments"

footnote three: wiki link to where one should be allowed by law to take away the mouse and key board from posters who post the first google hit to an iphone vs android news item WITHOUT reading the content.

here, flower

Curious to know how many of those are high-end phones. Also how many were give aways and how many were really bought.
