Apple increases UK smartphone share

New data from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech showed yet again that the lukewarm reception for the iPhone 4S from the experts has not affected consumer demand one jot. Well, not in the UK.
iOS bagged market share from Symbian and RIM in the 12 weeks to the end of November 2011, and Android also increased its share - moving from 34.8 per cent to 44.6 per cent in a year.
O2, which had the original iPhone exclusive, still sells the most even now. It had 36.1 per cent of all iPhone sales in the past 12 weeks. 3UK is the fastest growing network in the UK, with a smartphone share of 11.1 per cent.
Android has the biggest market share in all the major territories covered by the report, and is highest in Spain where it has 58.6 per cent of the smartphone market.
iOS was highest in Australia, just five points behind Android at 41.3 per cent.
