“One in five selling Android devices of HTC

A fifth of all sold Android devices coming from HTC. That claims to be the manufacturer in an interview with the Chinese site CENS. In addition, one in two selling Windows Phone smartphones from the Taiwanese-made, says the manufacturer.

Thus, the share of HTC in the field of Android in the last few years decreased; in 2009, were nearly all sold Android devices of HTC, as the manufacturer’s first smartphones with Googles mobile OS released. In 2010 the share is already less, but HTC remained leading.

Meanwhile, the ratio dropped to one in five, according to HTC ceo Fred Liu compared to CENS. That doesn’t mean that HTC less Androids has sold; and the sales of the Taiwanese manufacturer verdrievoudigden in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010, and that increase is all due to Android devices. HTC sold 7 à 7,5 million Android devices in the first quarter of 2011.

Lui claims that the half of the sold Windows Phone devices a HTC. It is unclear whether he is also selling Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphones are taken into account. HTC sold between 1.5 and 2.5 million Windows Phone handsets in the first quarter of 2011.
