Nielsen has recently done a recent survey, and had figured out that more people nowadays prefer smartphones over featured phones, and those smartphones sold mostly run the Android operating system.

However, though, the survey was mainly aimed towards August sales.

According to the results, 43% of the smartphones were Android devices, along with 56% of users selecting Android OS in the past three months, proving Android’s popularity.

On the other hand, iPhones are also pretty popular among smartphone users as it has the percentage of 28%, while the Apple iOS has reached the same percentage as the Android OS. Though it is still something to keep in mind that the new iPhones are coming out in early October, which may do some big changes to the statistics.

Nielsen’s Don Kellogg had also spoken:

Those figures could change quickly in the months to come. Every time Apple launches a new iPhone or makes it available on a new wireless carrier, there is an increase in their sales.

Pretty cool, eh? Looks like Apple and Android has some big rivals there. But whoever wins for the period, I’m just glad they are providing great services.
