The few changes that the new iPhone 4S underwent compared to its predecessor, the iPhone 4, seem to be taking their toll on sales. Apparently, and according to the Reuters agency, in Europe, Apple's advanced mobile is decreasing market share while Android mobiles are rising like foam. An example of this is the Samsung Galaxy S2.
The results come from countries such as France or Germany. The data that have been offered reveals that in France, the iPhone 4S has lost a market share that ranges from 29 percent to the current twenty percent. While in Germany, the situation is not so drastic, but it is equally lost, it loses once again: it goes from 27 percent to 22 percent. Likewise, it has also been indicated that the situation in Italy and Spain would be very similar.
The two possible causes that are put on the table are: on the one hand, the crisis that is hitting the Eurozone; on the other hand, the drop in prices that rival mobile phones have suffered. In addition, this last part is well known by current users: Apple's prices are the highest in the market. For example: the cheapest iPhone 4S costs 600 euros, while a Samsung Galaxy S2 can be found for less than 500 euros in free format.
It should also be said that Apple, in this latest model, has only chosen to renew an existing model without innovating too much and leaving almost all the weight of sales in the personal assistant baptized under the name of Siri; There was also an improvement in the resolution of the camera as well as the inclusion of a dual-core processor.
As the last piece of information offered: in Germany, during the last 12 weeks, Android has marked the market with a 61 percent share, where the best mobile sold so far has been Samsung's first sword. Of course, meanwhile, in markets such as the United Kingdom or the United States, the iPhone 4S continues to increase market share.
