#Ios vs android os market share android
Mobile analyst Horace Dediu at Asymco then estimated that the total cumulative number of Android devices activated so far is between 224 million and 253 million. We’ve also been watching Android’s steep market share climbs based on activations – Google’s Andy Rubin tweeted in December that there were now more than 700,000 Android phones activated every single day, which is up from 500,000 activations per day last June.
It also set a new record: Christmas 2010 had only seen 2.8 activations, Flurry said. That was up 353% from the 1.5 million activations a day over the first 20 days of December.
The firm found that 6.8 million Android and iOS devices were activated on Christmas Day alone. We recently got a glimpse of the extent of iOS and Android’s growing popularity, when a previous report from mobile analytics firm Flurry from December had confirmed the massive gains those platforms were making over the 2011 holiday season.
It’s clear that iOS and Android are dominating the market here, as former leader RIM’s sales tanked from over 20% in Q3 2010 to just 6% in October/November 2011. Apple’s phones are on the top of the list, with the iPhone 4S in the number one spot and the iPhone 4 still doing well in the #2 position. In addition, nine of the top ten phones sold in Oct/Nov are smartphones, with Samsung, HTC and Motorla each having at least one smartphone listed in NPD’s top ten.
