Nielsen is reporting that Google's mobile operating system Android currently has the biggest smartphone operating system (OS) market share in the U.S. The top three mobile operating systems, according to this new data, are Android (39%), Apple's iOS (28%) and RIM (20%).
Nevertheless, Apple is the top manufacturer of smartphones. This claim is mainly because of the fact that Apple ships its own phones, while Android is spread out across a number of OEM's, including leading manufacturers like HTC, Motorola and Samsung.
