Global Mobile data traffic Android is about to overtake iOS

Although the Android system has already surpassed iOS in the global Smart http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/2291.html "> Mobile phone shipments, in terms of network data traffic, But it's always been iOS equipment first. To know the contribution of network traffic is also an important factor to measure the popularity of equipment. But on the latest, the stalemate between Android and iOS is likely to make a big difference in the coming months.

Android and iOS traffic close

The global network traffic report for June this year, released according to NET applications, shows that iOS network traffic has slipped in recent months, while the Android platform is on the rise and will produce the first time in the next two months over iOS.

The global network traffic usage of the Android system (including smartphones and tablets) from 37.75% in April to 41.58% in May to 43.75% this month shows a strong upward trend, which can be expected to continue in the next few months. At the same time, the global use of iOS has slipped, down from 51.11% to 48.34% this year, to 45.61% per cent of global traffic this month. The gap between the two will be further narrowed, with only 1.86% in the last one months, and will hopefully be overtaken by Android over the next few months.

This time last year, iOS had a much higher data footprint than the Android system. Apple's mobile operating system accounts for 57.56% of global network traffic, while Android is 24.66%. Two years ago, iOS and Android network traffic was 65.27% and 19.73%, respectively. In 2009, iOS was 39.02% and Android was only 2.59%, and Symbian systems at the time accounted for 16.84%. As for why the BlackBerry system's network traffic is always low, even in 2009 it is still the case, because most manufacturers of mobile phones are used in e-mail, text messages and so on. At the time, BlackBerry browsers were poor, and people who had used blackberries would definitely understand.

With these years of growth, Android is likely to overtake iOS as the world's largest smartphone operating system in the future. And with Google (Weibo) and Apple launching the latest Android L and iOS 8, it is believed that two technology giants in the field of mobile operating system competition, will continue to be fierce.
