Android is killing nearly everywhere else but the USA.
Americans are spoiled. We are wealthy enough to buy what tickles our fancy. Americans blindly opt for Apple devices to be with the in crowd. To be hip. To be whatever feeds their fantasies
You go to Latin America and Asia and Android dominates because it is less expensive and this what they can afford. Japan is rich so they buy a lot of Apple devices. But Android rules Asia, Africa, Latin America, European nations that are not so rich like Greece and Poland etc etc
What is someone in Argentina or Uruguay going to buy? An android phone and Lenovo tablet
Uh, in some areas where Apple simple does not have an official presence, you have a point.
Where Apple does compete, it swiftly becomes the number one selling device model in any market it enters. Japan? 68.7% of mobile phones. Hong Kong 28%. KOREA — home of largest cellphone maker in the world—iPhone accounts for 14% and is the #1 selling model of Smartphone! 29.9% in Great Britain, 19.8% in China after only one year, Australia: 35.7%, France: 20.3%, Italy: 12.8%. And remember, this is one company's three models against over 200 companies' over 500 models of Android phones and tablets! Yet the IOS devices were the # 1,2 &3 best selling devices in every one of these markets despite being the most expensive in those markets.
