Windows Phone continues its ascent in the global smartphone race, at least according to shipment numbers released by IDC. While the increase in global market share continues for Microsoft?s mobile OS, perhaps the more interesting story is in individual markets.
IDC?s new numbers show that Windows Phone ?posted the largest increase for both the quarter (46.7%) and the year (90.9%)? when compared to iOS and Android. That?s down from Q3, where shipments were pegged at 156%, but is line with year-end performance. The take away is that Microsoft has nearly doubled their growth.
Likewise, Nokia?s dominance of the Windows Phone market is confirmed again at that 90% number, which has had multiple corroborations at this point.
