Re:It didn't stop, Apple is growing
Further, their share of smartphones is growing with respect to Android. So their 30% commission isn't in danger.
But this stupid article quotes stock market analysts and a random tourist. No evidence that Apple is messing up. Just opinions unconnected to data, and instead the analysts are just comparing to some ideal that they imagine.
Where did you get this data? A quick search on Google shows a different story. In the US, Apple has a larger market share than each of the individual competitors, but not when you combine the Android manufacturers. In fact, Apple's market share slipped this last quarter by 1%. In the Global market, Apple is in third place. In regards to Phone activations in the US Apple has remained steady or declined a bit.
The only place where Apple made gains is in China where they increased their market share by 5%, from 19.7% to 24.7%. Android dropped by 5%.

https://www.counterpointresear...That's the cruel joke that all the Fandroids like to play. Apple is a BRAND (and a Platform). Android is NOT a BRAND.
You simply cannot compare the two.

Re:This should last...
Fact: Apple global smartphone share = 12%
Slightly going up YOY from 11.8% to 12.4% while Android's going down (because nothing else could have gone down) - thanks for disproving yourself.
You didn't actually understand the numbers, right?

Re:Another crap Apple article
Apple watch dropped from 35% to 30% market share year over year, to hold a minority share of a market it once owned, while Fitbit Shipments grew 348%.

Your citation: market down 2% apple up 1%
Apple is not losing marketshare.
You are mistaken, from your own citation: "Global smartphone shipments declined 2% annually

Re:Apple not losing market share ...
Apple is not losing marketshare.
Now Apple is already down to 11% of the worldwide market and was passed by Huawei at 15%. Xiaomi is now only 2% behind Apple, coming up fast, and Oppo is 3% behind. Apple will soon be fourth or fifth by market share.

Re:More to come
I-phone has 8% of the Chinese smartphone market compared to Huawei 25%, Oppo 19%, Vivo 18%, Xiaomi 13%. So, yah, crushed, and too bad because China was 33% of global I-phone revenue.

Backed up...every time
"1% china share. "
You need to back up your numbers.
http://www.counterpointresearch.com/9-out-of-10-handsets-sold-in-china-are-smartphones "15% Samsung, 11% Lenovo, 11% Coolpad (Yulong), 7% ZTE, 6% Huawei, 3% Nokia and 1% Apple. 45% of China's market is split by the approx 1,000 local domestic brands that almost all do Android."
As I said Kantars numbers put Apple at 21% but then they only measure 'Úrban China'...this is not the first time Kantar Numbers have been lets say surprising
Tomi does a good writeup of marketshare movements, and includes information from the 4 main market research groups in this area. I mainly use IDC because they show trends in nice graphs,but there is rarely anything between them.
