You still seem confused about the posting I made so let me help you understand.
Then they have labeled their Y axis wrong!!! - So , if you are reporting the numbers in the study are actually based on 19,000 device activations a month on their network? Then the sample is tiny cos Android activates 1.5 million devices a day.. at least last July they were...
Here in the USA we get to make our Y-Axis anything we want. The author of the story, Nathanael Arnold
chose activations per month, which seems very reasonable. His X-Axis of months in a year ALSO seems
reasonable. The graph then showed a line going from the lower left to the upper right for both Samsung
and Apple. The slope of the line for Apple was MUCH steeper because the adoption rate per month was
so MUCH greater than for Samsung. Also, Apple's line seems to be accelerating at the end, due to new
devices coming on line. If one were to draw a horizontal line on the graph at 19k and look at the part that
shows 2013 activations, one would se that 19,000 x 10 = 190,000 activations for the 10-month 2013
period, just as they claimed.
So you are reporting that of the 45 million Android (conservatively speaking) devices activated per month - only 19,000 were used in business....? or is that 19,000 including all iOS and Android smartphones? We must realize that story is about Enterprise and small/medium business at one network, Intermedia.
If your studies and data at your network are at odds, please present them and circumstances under which
the data was collected. If you are further confused or wish to contact the author, please use the URL that
I presented in my original post of the story.
I doubt its correct - cos Google is kissing all time highs and AAPL is off $150.00 from its high a year ago. Oh wow! I don't think they considered this at all when they collected the data. When you contact the
author, be sure to mention this. Whatever you do, don't call him a liar, they hate that.
