Global Tablet Operating System Forecast by Country: 2010-2017

The introduction of White-Box tablets into the forecast has a significant effect on the market share between Android and iOS. Almost 100% of White-Box tablets are based on Android OS. As an example, during 2013, in the branded tablet market, iOS retains a 50.7% market share globally, but when we introduce White-Box into the mix, iOS share declines to 39.4%. However, during the forecast period, iOS will remain the market leader in the branded tablet market by a healthy margin. This report forecasts global tablet sales, including White Box tablets, by operating system by 6 major regions and 88 countries from 2010 to 2017.
