That there has been a marked rise in sales of Android tablets, as found out by research firm Strategy Analytics. The study reveals 10.5 million units of Android based tablets had being shipped in the last quarter of 2011. The figure indicates an increase by a whooping 300 percent over the same period a year earlier. Android devices now command 39 percent market share of the entire tablet PCÂ sector in the market today.
The report from Strategy Analytics, however, does not indicate if it was any particular tablet that accounted for this surge in sales or it was just an overall increase across the board. However, it’s well known fact that the Kindle Fire and the Nook Tablet that were among the better selling Android tablets and have contributed to this sales surge.
Nook tablets and Kindle Fires sold 4 million units, which amounts to about 40 percent of the total 10.5 million tablets that have been sold.
36 percent of people use Kindle Fires, as by Flurry. Remember, if you have a Kindle Fire, you can get all the apps you need from the Good e-Reader Android App Store.
With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
