Windows Phone OS is closing in on Apple's iOS in most of Europe
According to a new study out by Kantar for Q1 2014, OS shares across Europe have stabilized with Android holding its position as the number one operating system in Europe, with a 72.4% share of the market. It is followed by Apple's iOS with a 17.5% share and Window's Phone OS taking third place with 8.4% market share. The notable break in that trend was found in Britain where Android is holding on to 58.2% market share while iOS is solidly in second with 30.2% and Windows Phone OS in third again with 9.5%.
In the US, Samsung's rapidly growing share of 34.1% is hot on the heels of Apple, which stands at 34.6% of the market. iPhone 6 should help to boost those numbers this fall. You can delve into the rest of the study here.
