Lumia 520 continues to dominate Windows Phone, while Nokia crosses 90% threshold
Newest data from AdDuplex shows the Lumia 520 continuing to dominate. While by the side of the same point in time Windows Phone 7.X concedes extra promote share to Windows Phone 8. Nokia irrevocably reaches 90% dominance with Windows Phone.
What’s the current Windows Phone landscape look like? There’s really thumbs down better way to request than by looking by the side of the data from AdDuplex. The cross-promotion set of connections in favor of both Windows Phone and Windows 8 gives us insight with the intention of we might not follow from spaces like IDC otherwise comScore. We’ve got the story in favor of this month and so far the biggest trend in favor of this month is with the intention of the Lumia 520 continues to dominate.
Let’s check publicized the lean of the data lower.
The barely engine with the intention of may possibly
In favor of a second disregard on the subject of 41 megapixels, optical image stabilization, quad-core processors and high-resolution displays. Happening actuality, let’s disregard all on the subject of the high-end Windows Phone diplomacy publicized here and as a substitute focus our attention on the Nokia Lumia 520. This device has probably finished extra in favor of the platform than some other device. It’s incredibly valuable in favor of Windows Phone to tolerate flagship diplomacy like the Lumia 920, 1020, and 1520. However, it’s the Lumia 520 with the intention of may well befall the single feature in favor of platform growth this time.
Data from AdDuplex shows the Lumia 520 up 3.3% happening stipulations of promote share in favor of Windows Phone diplomacy. It straight away commands 26.5% of the pie, but may possibly befall to the same extent high point to the same extent 29.9% if you set it with the Lumia 521 on T-Mobile US (which in favor of all intents and purposes is the same device). That’s agency virtually 30% of all Windows Phone diplomacy at present happening treatment are part of the Lumia 520(1) strain.
Nokia domination
It irrevocably happened. Recently we looked by the side of particular data from IDC with the intention of showed Nokia to the same extent shipping 93.2% of Windows Phone diplomacy happening Q3 2013. However, that’s scarcely single quarter and data from AdDuplex gives us an overall picture of Windows Phone with the intention of includes earlier period diplomacy from prior quarters. The earlier period a small number of months we’ve seen Nokia inching towards 90% of promote share happening the data from AdDuplex, but it irrevocably happened this earlier period month.
Nokia straight away owns 90% of all Windows Phone diplomacy publicized here. HTC is happening moment place with 7.0% of the promote, while Samsung and Huawei cling to 1.8% and 1.3% correspondingly. Microsoft is happening the final stages of acquiring Nokia’s handset division. Is it some presume why they’d get to when with the intention of specific OEM?
Windows Phone 7.X won’t expire
Despite Microsoft’s wishes (and ours), Windows Phone 7.X is still publicized here happening equally massive informationtion. We’d sweetheart to look at each person follow on board with Windows Phone 8 diplomacy, but we understand that’s not entirely too feasible happening the planet of two-year contracts and/or expensive diplomacy. Windows Phone 7.X is still on 24.7% of all Windows Phone diplomacy, while Windows Phone 8 is on 75.3%.
Why? Both the Lumia 710 and 800 are publicized here happening equally substantial numbers/percentages. We’ve got 6.2% of all Windows Phone diplomacy still being the Lumia 710, while the Lumia 800 is on 5.1% of diplomacy. Reaper the two with the Lumia 610 (4.0%) and you’re looking by the side of 15.3% of all Windows Phone diplomacy used this earlier period month still running Windows Phone 7.X.
Territory by territory
It’s continually fun to look at which diplomacy are widely held happening specific countries. AdDuplex pulls data from a handful of certain countries every month and bidding from time to time mix it up with a newborn territory otherwise two. We’ll look by the side of the United States, United Kingdom, and India at the moment. The broad AdDuplex story bidding befall untaken on their blog tomorrow and you’ll look at bonus in order in favor of Germany, France, Italy, Mexico, Australia and Vietnam.
Alarm. The Nokia Lumia 520 is still the a large amount widely held device happening the United States. Followed by the Lumia 822 and the Lumia 920. The a large amount widely held carriers in favor of Windows Phone are AT&T (31.7%), Verizon (27.5%), T-Mobile (20.6%) and MetroPCS (8.4%). Both AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile faintly lost Windows Phone promote share to MetroPCS, which is up 1.6% this month from 6.8%.
More than happening the United Kingdom, the Lumia 520 reigns supreme. Is here a territory everywhere the Lumia 520 isn’t on top of the tor? Of course and that’s happening Germany. But back to the UK and we look at the Lumia 520 on top with the Lumia 800 happening moment with 11.6% of the promote. That’s not too surprising if you recall how powerfully the Lumia 800 was hard-pressed happening the UK and with the intention of a large amount community are sheltered into contracts with the device. We’ll look at how the Windows Phone landscape shapes up happening the UK more than the introduction months to the same extent the majority of persons two-year contracts set in motion to expire.
India is at home to more than single billion community and is arrange in favor of explosive growth happening cellular phone. Which is exactly why phones like the Lumia 520 exist, to be converted into incredibly widely held smartphone options in favor of persons happening emerging markets with the intention of might befall extra insightful to the overall pricing of a device. So, it’s again, thumbs down alarm with the intention of the Lumia 520 is the a large amount widely held Windows Phone device happening India. It controls virtually semi the promote by the side of 43.4%. Happening moment place is the Lumia 720 by the side of 12.7%. A further device that’s widely held in favor of its skin texture to charge ratio in favor of a smartphone.
Looking into the future
The data we scarcely looked by the side of came from a single time cycle on November 22nd. To the same extent you know, with the intention of was the time the Nokia Lumia 1520 launched, so we’re not going away to look at it really brand an collision on these AdDuplex reports in favor of by the side of smallest amount a month otherwise two. However, it did control to sneak into the 19th take in favor of Windows Phone diplomacy. AdDuplex recognizes 21 Windows Phone 8 diplomacy happening their data and the Lumia 1520 slipped into the future of both the Samsung ATIV S Neo and Huawei W2.
We’ve heard rumors of Nokia working on a successor to the wildly widely held Lumia 520 called the Lumia 525. We don’t know much on the subject of the device yet happening stipulations of specs otherwise skin texture, but if it’s building leading the same foundation and main beliefs from the Lumia 520 it’s trustworthy to befall a winner. Thumbs down word on availability in favor of with the intention of device, but we suspect it’ll swing imminent AdDuplex reports.
The holidays are introduction and we can’t pause to look at how Black Friday deals and Christmas gifts form the Windows Phone landscape. I beg your pardon? Are your predictions?
