>>Yet U.S. Android market share has climbed and the difference with iPhone has WIDDEN. How do you explain that??? I know how.... you are WRONG!!!!<<

"Widden?" Could you define that?

Meanwhile, rnsmth is NOT wrong. What he said was "And the percentage of smartphones sold by Verizon that are Android has gone down."

Now stay with me, here, Sylly. I'm sure you'll be able to follow this logic, because I'll break it down for you.

Unless you are claiming that Verizon has sold absolutely no iPhones at all, their percentage of sales that are Android phones must have dropped. And as we know from Verizon's quarterly reports, they have actually sold millions of iPhones, and it is their number one seller. So rnsmth's statement is correct.

By the way, to refresh your memory, Verizon's Q2 report said they activated 2.3 million iPhones, vs. 1.2 million 4G LTE devices. And as we know, while all 4G LTE phones sold by Verizon are Android phones, they also sell a number of 4G LTE mobile hotspots and USB modems, so not all of those 1.2 million 4G sales were Androids.

Facts, Sylly. The numbers don't lie.

PS: For this quarter, the ratios will be different, due to the slowdown in iPhones toward the end of the quarter. As we'll see tomorrow, when Verizon reports.
