iPhone 4S sales increasing caused the Android market share to drop 13%

U.S. market research firm NPD released the latest statistics show that during October to November in 2011, smart phone Android market share of Google dropped sharply from 60% 13-47% by the Apple iPhone 4S smart phone sales increasing and other factors in the U.S.

NPD data shows that during the third quarter of 2011, Google Android smartphones market share is 60% in the U.S. Apple iOS corresponding market share was only 26%. But by October 2011 and November, due to the rapid growth sales of iPhone 4S, resulting in market share was increasing, the market share of Apple iOS up to 43%, Android market share fell to 47%.

Industry believes that a large number of American consumers to wait during the third quarter last year, the purpose is that waiting for the new iPhone. And after iPhone 4S releasing, it was sought by consumers immediately, therefore the market share of Apple iOS and the gap with Google Android was narrowed.

Another analyst pointed out that since last February, and many Verizon Wireless users have been waiting for Apple to release the new iPhone. Because of this, a large number of Verizon customers did not shot to buy iPhone 4 on time, these users worry about the new iPhone releasing, the iPhone 4 will become out of fashion in their hands. On the other hand, after Apple released the new iPhone, Verizon Wireless, Sprint and AT & T customers Jieke are able to buy.

Industry have pointed out, NPD data only reflects the situation of last October and November. Unless the Android mobile phone sales was with amazing performance last December, or during the entire fourth quarter last year, Apple iOS is likely to regain more market share from Google Android, at least, it is no longer so obvious between two sides of the market share gap.
