Android Market Share Surpasses Apple's IOS Globally for First Time
15 апреля 2011 |
Joining the list of research houses that say the Android OS platform has overtaken Apple's iPhone is the mobile ad agency, InMobi.
According to their report, although iPhone OS and Android both continue to capture share on a global basis, over the last few months Android growth has been increasing and has now surpassed that of iPhone OS.
Commenting on the study, James Lamberti, VP Global Research & Marketing at InMobi, says, "The global smartphone revolution continues into Q2 2011. The introduction of Android has significantly accelerated smartphone growth, as it brings a wealth of options to consumers. With the increased focus on mobile from global publishers, advertisers and developers the mobile experience has reached the next phase of its evolution."
The report highlights that Android smartphones are rapidly becoming a primary gateway to digital content, as the platform provides consumers with many device options, at varying price points - creating a real alternative to the desktop or laptop. Many households across Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa rely on Android smartphones as the primary platform to consume media instead of a web-based PC.
Global Findings
Total Mobile Advertising impressions on the InMobi network grew by 21 percent (December 2010 to March 2011), this was driven by the large influx of smartphone impressions, which increased by 2.8 billion during the period.
Mobile phone manufacturers Samsung, Apple and HTC continued to capture share from global leader Nokia. Although Nokia still remains in the number one position with 40 percent share of global impressions, their historical dominance is quickly eroding.
Nokia lost -3.9 share points in just 90 days, while Samsung (+1.6 share pts), Apple (+1.9 share pts) and HTC (+2.8 share pts) gained share.
Globally, 35 percent of all mobile ad impressions now occur on smartphones.

Rob Jonas, VP Managing Director Europe & Middle East, InMobi, comments, "We're witnessing such rapid adoption of Android, that it's now eating into the iPhone's share in Europe, as it has done in the US. The incredible growth of smartphones, as demonstrated by these findings, really highlight that brands and agencies can no longer ignore the importance of mobile and the opportunities in the market."
