In a recent study from ABI Research reported that despite the fact that
Android is the dominant mobile operating system in the world , things sometimes go to Google is not as rosy as the spread of the OS.
The company sometimes loses control over Android ecosystem because now there are so many forknutyh OS versions , which are very popular in Asian countries from vendors who produce their own gadgets and do not set them on the services and applications Google, thereby denying the search giant's usual advertising earnings. The Asian market is huge and not fully controlled .
According to ABI Research in the fourth quarter of 2013 had sold more than 280 million smartphones. 77% of them were running Android. But of 221.5 million Android-devices sold only 150.4 of them left consumers with official applications and services of Google. Order 71.1 million gadgets sold with forknutymi versions Android, over which Google has no control . In other words - one of three smartphones sold on Android, was without the usual Google- applications.
For comparison, let us recall the fourth quarter of 2012 , when it sold more than 146 700 000 Android-smartphone , where 116,700,000 were quite formal and only 30 million applications were delivered without Google.
While sales of devices are growing from year to year . Compared to last year the increase was 137 %, which is attributed to the activity of the markets of China , India and other Asian countries.
As for iOS and Windows Phone, which took second and third place for the dissemination , these systems were 18 % and 4 % of the world has sold more than 51 million and 10.9 million units respectively in the fourth quarter of last year .
