The figures, released by comScore on Friday, confirm that Microsoft’s market share has dropped by 25% since devices went on sale in the U.S. during November 2010. Microsoft originally had a 9% market share in November 2010, comScore’s latest figures suggest this is now just 6.7%, a drop of over two percentage points or 25%.Microsoft's U.S. smartphone share drops 25% since Windows Phone 7 launch
The figures might paint a bad picture but Microsoft is banking on Nokia to help it generate significant interest during 2012. IDC predicts Windows Phone 7 will account for over 20% market share, above iOS’s 15% in 2015. The prediction is based on the significant implications of the recent Nokia and Microsoft deal. Nokia believes it will ship a Windows Phone in the fourth quarter of 2011.
