iPhone has near 50% of US Web Share.

Tuesday, January 13, 2009

Ad Mob, using data collected from over 6000 publishers on thousands of mobile websites, reported surprising data on December mobile phone operating system share. Newest data show iPhone’s web presence is approaching half all of smart phone’s combined.

The high internet usage for iPhone is expected as people actually use their iPhone to surf the web even when they are at home. Just look at the high percentage of iPhone users using their Wi-Fi connection when they’ve already got 3G. Furthermore, it seemed Apple has made the iPhone Safari more stable. Those iPhone Safari crashes are occurring at a far lower rate than they used to be.

Worldwide, Simbian OS still rules as Simbian dominates Asia and Africa at 90% market share there. But iPhone is grabbing a bigger piece of the global market share by coming in second at 32%. With more and more people in the world using iPhone as a internet device, isn’t it time for Apple to add Flash to the iPhone?
