Windows Phone Devices – Mexico
May 14th, AdDuplex
We last looked at Mexico in
February.
Reflecting the global pattern,
the big change is that the 520
has lost 1.9% but the 530
has gained the same
amount.
Mexico has traditionally stood
out as a market with a higher
than average proportion of
devices running 7.X. This is
still the case and three such
devices are still in the top ten
but their proportion is
dropping.

Windows Phone Devices – Finland
May 14th, AdDuplex
It’s been over a year since
we looked in depth at Finland
and in that time much has
changed.
Finland stands out from the
global trend and the other
countries we’re looking at as
it has a preponderance of
higher spec devices and
larger screens.

Windows Phone Devices – India
May 14th, AdDuplex
The Lumia 535 has
overtaken the 520 this month
to become the most popular
device in India. This is mostly
due to the 520 losing 2%
share since April.
There are no other changes
to the order of the rest of the
top ten. But the Other group
has grown by 2.1% in the last
month though.

Windows Phone Devices – Australia
May 14th, AdDuplex
Australia has a breakdown of
devices that is again different
from all other countries we’ve
looked at.
The Lumia 520 has lost
almost half of it’s market
share in the last six months
with the 530 growing by
almost the same amount
(11.8%).
The 1020, in seventh place
and with over 5% market
share, is a surprise entry as it
wasn’t in the top ten at the
end of last year.
The “Other” group has also
seen a growth of 2.5%
