Abstracts

With global shipments increasing by 280 % in 2011, android smartphones have attained a global smartphone market share of 32 % in a relatively short span of time from just 13 % in 2010. Google recently announced in its Q3 2011 conference call that the total number of android activations had surpassed 190 million, up from 135 million in Q2 2011. In particular, with the entry of Chinese and Indian vendors into the market, the race to lower android smartphone prices is gaining momentum, which in consequence has lead to the early emergence of mid-tier android devices. Furthermore Google’s recently announced acquisition of Motorola with its 17,000 approved and 7500 pending patents, will considerably assist in the protection of android and it’s ecosystem from patent infringement lawsuits. The move is further likely boost android sales, and consequently the market share.
