Some reports are coming out that Android devices are outselling iPhones, which spells doom for Apple. I think it’s an unfair assessment. Besides the fact that Verizon, the primary provider of Android devices, is much larger than AT&T, there are also dozens of Android phones available on several other carriers.
It’d only be fair to compare all iOS devices (iPod touch, iPad, etc.), not just iPhones, to devices running Android.
When we do that, Apple clearly remains the dominant force. Including iPad and iPod touch segments in the comparison doubles the amount of iOS devices on the market.
Still, it’s pretty amazing that a single Apple device is ahead of all Android phones combined.
