Here is more information from the same article:

“Android, meanwhile, nearly doubled its shipments from 80.6 million units at the end of 2011 to 152.1 million in the holiday quarter of 2012. Android’s share of the global market increased from an estimated 51 percent of shipments to 70 percent at the end of 2012.”

“In all, nearly a half-billion Android phones are said to have been shipped in calendar 2012. In comparison, Apple shipped 135.8 million iPhones in the same span.”

These numbers go a long way in showing that even though these two companies are leading the pack, Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) has a comfortable lead.

What are your thoughts on this data? Does Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) have any chance to add to its market share in 2013?
