9L0-406

Apple’s iOS share will continue to lead by more than 40 percentage points over 9L0-406 Apple Google’s Android for the remainder of the year, but we expect Apple’s share to fall closer to 50% by the end of the forecast period as manufacturers bring new tablets to market.

Media Apple 9L0-406 exam tablet shipments grew at a solid pace in the second quarter, led by continued strong demand for Apple products. Looking forward to the second half of 2011, IDC expects Android to cede additional market share in 3Q11 before it starts growing its share again in 4Q11 (increasing to 25.9%) and beyond.

In addition to continued demand for Apple iPads, IDC expects many consumers who were on the fence about buying a media tablet to scoop up $99 TouchPads as a result of HP’s decision to end production of its tablet product. We expect major vendors to offer their current-generation black-and-white eReaders for less than $100 by the holidays.

IDC expects close to a million TouchPads to ship into the channel before the end of the year. As a result, Apple 9L0-406 exam WebOS’s worldwide market share is forecast to reach 4.7% in 3Q11. However, with no clear plan to license or sell the OS to other vendors, IDC expects the WebOS market share to shrink back to zero by 1Q12.

We expect shipment totals to continue to grow in the third and fourth quarter, as additional vendors introduce more price-competitive Android products into the market and Apple works to maintain its dominance in the category.
