All know how well that going to Samsung in the telephony market, since it has become the largest supplier of the market ahead of Nokia and, in addition, in different countries gain market shares which, if they are not the best, are the second and, therefore, are happy in Korea. Well, so it seems with the tablets numbers also are accompanying them.


According to a report by Korea Herald, the percentages of the Korean company are really good to December 2012, because that happened to be 18.1% market share worldwide (not bad if you consider that about the same time of last year the percentage was only 6.5%). I.e., that left behind poor results and statements in which it was assumed that it was not doing things "anything well in the market for tablets".

Obviously the great Dominator is still Apple with your iPad model... but their control is not so brutal as yesteryear. Last year the percentage that had this company was 59.7%, and even, in Q2 of this year the figure rose to 68.4%. Now, the percentage has dropped to 52.9%. Obviously it is a very important breakthrough, but the trend seems to be indicating that the distance is clipped (and nothing seems to indicate that this will change). In short, that there are party.

One of the reasons for this way of developing the market, apart from a better quality and innovation by Samsung (just have to look at the model Galaxy Note 10.1), is OS - always talking about the market of tablets.

Here, the trend is very clear that according to data from IDC, iOS maintains a share of 53.8%, whereas Android arrives at 42.7%. Here, obviously all models that use Google's operating system have in mind. But there's more, according to a study by ABI Research believes that the tables will be changed in the middle of the year 2013 and Android will be who dominates the market. Therefore, things are complicated for Cupertino, than surely that will try to react... but how?

The truth is that it is very complicated to know since a year to this part, the creativity of Apple seems that it is not the same, and even gives the impression that the innovation is now in the hands of Google and its partners. And the economic factor plays in favor of the development of Mountain View. Moreover, from Cupertino have released until three iPad models this year, and yet the trend has not changed... There are even, who says that the Mini model is doomed to failure. We'll see.

In short, everything does indicate that in regard to the operating system Android takes the lead and tends to this stabilizes. And if we talk about the distance between Apple and Samsung in the market of tablets (now of 34.8%), can this even lower since Nexus 10 is answering sales and, in addition, the Galaxy Tab and Note increasingly has greater acceptance.
