Android Market share increased tenfold in one year

Devices with mobile operating system Android, from Google's case, the iPhone displaced as number three on the smartphone market.
Android phones have 17.2 percent of the smartphone market share, 14.2 percent iPhones.
It also appears that Nokia is still by far the largest is in smartphones, with 41.2 percent market share. The Finns, however, provide quarterly market share to Android and Apple manufacturers. Nokia lost last quarter, compared to last year, nearly 20 percent of the smartphone market.
This is evident from the figures that market researcher Gartner has just published . Looked at the operating system market as follows:

Striking but not surprising for many, is that the share of Windows Mobile almost halved.Microsoft is becoming a less significant player in the mobile market. It hopes the tide to the end of 2010 when corn Windows Phone appears.
Currently, 19 percent of all mobile phones sold a smart phone with an advanced operating system and Internet access. That's 50.5 percent over one year ago.
These new devices are important to manufacturers because they are both a replacement and also bring in more money. Smartphones are more expensive and are therefore more. The bottom of the phone market is held by Chinese manufacturers like ZTE and G'Five . These brands are now in the top 10 major vendors and have a combined 3 percent of the phone market.
Gartner also points out that tablet computers such as Apple iPad, no direct competitors for smartphones. They do not cannibalize sales on the phone. The reason is simple, says the researcher: a phone fits in your pocket.
The research report is also an explicit advice to Nokia: "Win more software developers and other players in the mobile ecosystem for you to change the platform strategy."
