In the smartphone operating system
(OS) market, Google's Android continued to capture market share from
Apple's iOS, to command nearly 88 percent of the total market (see Table
2 above).
"The withdrawal of Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 may benefit sales of
Apple's iPhone 7 Plus only slightly, as Note 7 users are likely to stay
with Samsung or at least with Android," said Roberta Cozza,
research director at Gartner. "To some extent, other Android vendors
could capitalize on this situation in the short term — for example,
Huawei and other Chinese brands present in the premium Android phone
segment.
The Note 7's withdrawal also comes at a good time for Google in
mature markets, where it’s Pixel and Pixel XL devices have started
selling."
