Android sees market share growth in latest Comscore report
Breaking the trend, Android’s market share has risen from 51.9% to 52.1% in the three months ending September 2014. Apple’s iOS, however, saw a slight dip down to 41.7% from the 42.1% share they saw in the previous three month period. Good new for Microsoft though as they saw another steady increase from 3.4% to 3.6%. Blackberry, however, lost 0.1% of the market, which Symbian somehow managed to pick up, going from 0.1% to 0.2%.
Samsung and LG both managed to grab a larger share of the market than the previous cycle, while Apple, Samsung and HTC all saw a decrease. Unsurprisingly the amount of smartphone users grew by 1%. As in the past Facebook and Youtube hold the top spots for most-installed apps. Not a very interesting report this time around, but stay tuned for next month which will reflect sales of the iPhone 6, iPhone 6+ and the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
