Android Becomes Leading Tablet OS in 2013

by Mathias Brandt, 13.03.2013

The chart shows a forecast of the global market share for tablet operating systems in 2013 and 2017.

Around 49 percent of all tablets shipped in 2013 will run Android, according to a recent forecast by IDC. This would rank Google’s operating system ahead of its major competitor, Apple’s iOS, for the very first time. In 2012, more than 50 percent of all tablets shipped were iPads. In the future, it appears that a stalemate will develop between Android and iOS. One reason for this may be that Microsoft, with Windows and Windows RT, will have a 10 percent share of the tablet market by 2017.
