iOS almost as popular as Android – June … – Softonet

In addition to the statistics released today, the market share of operating systems for the personal computer, side Net Market Share also presented data on their mobile counterparts. The vast fragmentation of Android makes the results of the various versions of the operating system from Google has been divided into several positions, but it turns out that even after the summing iOS is not as far behind as you might think.

About wyszukiwarkowego giant’s dominance on the market for mobile operating systems may no longer be speech, and Apple is increasingly asserting its position. Even if we sum up today published results for systems Lollipop Android (5.1, 5.0), Kit Kat (4.4, 4.3), Jelly Bean (4.3 to 4.1), Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0), and even the Gingerbread (2.3) it turns out, their combined share is 49.14%. Almost the entire second half of the market (40.58%) are running under iOS iPhones (22.75%) and iPads (17,83%). The big loser is still Windows Phone, from which three versions (7.5, 8.0 and 8.1) uses only 2.25% of users. Microsoft’s very weak position could change early next year when it debuted in autumn Windows 10 Mobile users already manage to tame. But it is not nothing certain, because in June the number of people who decided to install a test version of the mobile operating system from Redmond accounted for only 0.01% of all smartphones and tablets. This is not a good omen for the future, one needs to remember that Windows 10 Mobile is currently in a very early version of the test, which most likely to effectively deter users from installing it.

If you take a closer look to what is happening in the camp Google will notice that the most popular variant of Android is 4.4 Kit Kat, which is installed on 19.74% of smartphones and tablets. Having premiered in October last year Lollipop is used only by 8.26% (5.0 – 7.46% 5.1 – 0.8%) patients and at the moment difficult to expect significant improvement this result, because manufacturers of smartphones and tablets are very reluctant to update this version of the software on their devices (very possible that this is due to a large number of errors which failed to fix for more than 6 months after the release of Android 5.0). Weak position in this ranking Lollipop does not improve also the debut of Android 6.0, which we expect to launch this fall.
