Google Inc.’s Android platform has taken the lead in the U.S. smartphone
market, according to several new reports by technology research firms.
In the third quarter, devices with the Android operating system were
installed in 44% of smartphones, while Apple Inc.’s iPhone came in second
place with 23%, according to market research firm, NPD Group. RIM’s
BlackBerry trailed behind in third place with 22%. One big caveat: NPD
tracks consumer activity, but doesn’t measure corporate cellphone purchases.
“[Android] has a very strong story to tell in terms of lack of licensing
fees, high degree of customization and a significant advantage in terms of
an app market,” said Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis
for NPD Group.
Tech research firm Canalys said that the smartphone market has exploded this
year, growing 95% in the third quarter from a year earlier. In the U.S.,
Apple was able to muscle past RIM, shipping 5.5 million smartphones in the
third quarter, compared with 5.1 million for RIM. But because Android does
not charge for its software and is available on a range of devices, it
catapulted to the top spot with 9.1 million shipments in the third quarter.
Mr. Jobs blasted the Android platform during the company’s quarterly
conference call last MONTH, saying app developers are turned off by having
to create multiple versions of the software for the numerous devices that
run on Android. The company’s iPhone sold 14.1 million units, 91% more than
a year ago. The line of smartphones had an average selling price of $610,
which includes subsidies paid by wireless carriers, Apple said.
But it may be that RIM has the most to worry about. RIM’s share of the
operating system market declined by 53% from a year earlier, NPD said. Apple
’s iOS took a 21% hit. | Q*K

如果再去算算基于android系统的中国的ophone, 如果把这个加入市场份额, 那会吓死人
但是iphone赚的是实实在在的钱啊 | s***i

因为andoid 很差的质量，每个人要更换好几次神机，然后用shipment冒充销售量。
根本就是一些不可靠的data。
