Is This The End of Windows Phone? Market Share Falls Below 1%


Once upon a time, Windows was once the most used devices, windows OS dominated the mobile market… and everyone once loved windows phones. But something happened; Microsoft sold their future devices to Foxconn and unintentionally rumored bowing out of the smartphone market the way Blackberry gave in to pressure.


Most windows mobile users are already porting to Android OS. Android currently hold the largest dominance followed by iOS then others.

According to Gartners mobile sales report, Microsoft saw windows phone market crippled and dwindles to 0.7% which represent 2.4Million windows devices sold in the last quarter of all 349.2 million devices shipped.

Even the former god father Nokia who recently announced their return, are not coming on Windows platform, but wholeheartedly embracing Android OS. 

Windows mobile OS has failed the city; failed its users because Microsoft hasn’t really given consumers something to make it a worthy mobile platform. This is just a tip of the iceberg, the end of Windows phone is here and nothing can stop it.
