Flurry, the analytics company that consistently gives good chart, has today released another statistical and graphical beauty – comparing launch period sales for Motorola’s DROID, Apple’s iPhone and Google’s Nexus One.
It’s not pleasant viewing for fans of Google’s Nexus One, but remember – Google’s taking a bigger share of the profits thanks to selling it direct, so it’s going to be pretty profitable even if “adoption” isn’t going quite as quickly as planned.
Here’s the lovely graph. Nexus fans might like to look away now:
It’s hard to put a positive spin on that. The data is compiled by recording download requests via Flurry-using apps on the various handsets and extrapolating it to cover overall sales. Flurry claims to cover around 80% of smartphones, so the figures ought to be pretty representative. Read more over at Flurry’s blog.
HTC’s 4.3″ dual-core Android model, powered by Qualcomm’s all-new S4 processor. It’s smaller than the enormous One X, but is it as nice as its bigger brother? (SPOILER: Yes it is).
HTC is very much B-A-C-K at the top of the Android world with this, its quad-core flagship for 2012. Great camera, huge 4.7″ display and Android 4.0 running beautifully well.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
