Android loses ground in Europe as iPhone adds dominance in North American Market
The analysis of the smartphone market of Kantar Worldpanel ComTech shows that in the last three months, until June 2018, Android lost 0.3% in the five main European markets, although it remains dominant, representing 79.3% of the market. Britain, Italy, Japan and China were the main countries where Google's operating system grew, accelerated by the performance of Huawei, which is singled out as a major factor in this success."Huawei has been making rapid progress in Europe for the last three years, but performance in Britain has been weak. To counter this, the manufacturer took a two-pronged approach, attacking the lower end of the market with its P Smart budget model and the top end with the P20 Pro. The P20 main series had a major impact in Britain, helping to raise Huawei's share of just 2.7% a year ago to 13.7% over the last three months, and a successful partnership with Argos has helped both sides to become major players in the lucrative British market, "says Dominic Sunnebo, global director of Kantar Worldpanel ComTech.
"The power and marketing budgets of the four big players in China are leaving less room for competitors to catch the attention of consumers - if they want to make an impact, it is imperative that they focus on targeting specific consumer segments, as an approach of dispersion will not work, "says Dominic Sunnebo.
