Google certainly ended 2009 on a good note with regards to its Android OS. As per a report from Android Guys, latest figures from NetApplications claim that Android is currently at the top and has augmented its market share over the last 2 months of 2009. Apparently mobile phones appear to be the largest usage share winners this holiday season. Every leading mobile operating system apparently achieved huge percentage increases.
The market share of Android is presently more than 54.8 percent. This implies that the Android OS has augmented its market share by an excellent margin. The concrete double-digit expansion of the Android browser apparently totally outshines the raises made by other smartphone browsers. Portion of the Android browser’s increase might be credited to the expansion of the mobile browsing segment. Mobile web browsers supposedly reported for 1.3% of all web activity in the later months of 2009.
While looking at the figures of leading mobile platforms, one can see that Android leads the pack with + 54.8%. Blackberry and iPhone comes 2nd and 3rd with +22.2% and +20.1% respectively. Symbian is in the 4th place with +19% and Java ME is 5th with +15.6%.
A comprehensive look at Android’s worldwide trend seems to display concrete development throughout the year, but a perfect increase during November and December. This could be possible due to Droid’s extensive ad campaign, the holiday offers on majority of Android-powered handsets and other such things.
