“The growth of Apple’s iOS remained stagnant, seeing only a 0.2
percent increase over the same period of time. Competitors
Microsoft, HP and RIM were the ones who suffered as Android grew,
with drops of 1.3 percent, 1.1 percent and 4.6 percent,
respectively. The five companies’ smartphone market share is shown
in the table below.“The growth is partly a numbers game. One of Google’s advantages
is the sheer number of phone models running Android. Hardware
makers have announced more than 10 different Android devices in the
first three months of this year, far more than those running
Google’s competitors.”
