Analyst Jack Gold (Jack Gold) from J. Gold Associates believes that despite the current setbacks, over time, the mass of Android-devices will be able to press the Apple iPad tablet on the market. Perhaps in the future will separate plates, capable by themselves to compete with the iPad, but first of all Android-weight vehicles should occupy a dominant position in the market. This time, analysts say, is pretty close.
Mr. Gold predicts that Android tablets will take three years in the period 2014-2015 years 50% of the market, while the share of total iPad falls to 30%. The share of tablets running Windows, make up 10%.
Despite this overall picture, the business sector, as suggested by the analyst, iPad will retain leadership and will hold a 40% share, while Android will own 30% of the market, and Windows - 15%.
“In 2014-2015, we expect that the tablets Android will take most of the consumer market, and the number of vendors and a variety of models have broken iPad, - says Gold. - But the iPad will continue to hold the largest share of the corporate market, where the special features built into some tablets Android, will be evaluated, but it will be a bit more time to build share. “
