In a very short 3 month period between November 2010 and February 2011, Android is proving to be a formidable force in the smartphone industry. ComScore is reporting that Android has gained 7% of the smartphone market, going from 26% to an impressive 33%.
A good portion of that gain was stolen right from Research In Motion (makers of the popular Blackberry smartphone) which as it turns out, lost 4.6% of the US market and dropped to 28.9%. Microsoft and Palm are also reporting losses while Apple has remained stagnant.
I think this is only the beginning as new Android handsets continue to flood the market. From the affordable budget handsets, to the top of the line premium devices like the jaw dropping Evo 3D, was there ever any doubt that Android will one day take over the globe?
My only worry is that one day, Android will become self aware, and enslave the humans.
all good. already have my “Will Code For Food” sign
My only worry is that one day, Android will say
“T-mobile girl nice software mmmm
Number five is alive!
Hey laser lips, your momma was a snowblower! pppppppbbbbb!”
Johnny 5 is alive!
No disassemble!
Thanks guys! Now I have a fever for some Johnny 5 and Ben antics now…
It already has… At least my girlfriend thinks so.
I personally think things will even be better for Android once Google gets fragmentation under control.
and this why the playbook will support android apps.
Actually, it won’t. I’ve used it. It doesn’t. But don’t tell anyone else.
Increased market share doesn’t necessarily mean Rim and Microsoft are losing customers. They just aren’t gaining as many as more people upgrade to smart phones.
People are dropping their berrys left and right and going Android.
Android Rules!!! G2
That’s a fair point Tim.
“Research In Motion (makers of the popular Blackberry smartphone)” …..Or not so popular it would seem.
It will be interesting to see what happens with the Palm market once (and if) HP gets the 3 new phones and tablet out to all of the carriers.
go android!
“In related news we just got word that the US has elected a BLACK PRESIDENT!!!”
