Beyond Smartphones, Android Making Big Gains In Tablets
Bloomberg reports that Android increased its market share in tablets in the fourth quarter to 22% of overall global sales. While it is a distant second to Apple’s iPad at 77%, the market share was an increase from 2.3% in the third quarter.
This shows that new Android tablets from Samsung, Motorola, and Acer have hit the market and had some immediate success. Also given the volume of new announced devices at CES and the price points that should be lower than iPad, its probable that by next year at this time Android will be the leader in both the tablet and Smartphone markets.
