In addition to Microsoft, WP8/WP8.1 requires more OEM

Computer Store News: Microsoft has completed the acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone division, which has also become the largest share of Windows Phone, and this trend continues into May. According to the latest data from Adduplex, Nokia's mobile phone has gained 0.2% of WP8 share. Although this is not a big increase, it further consolidates the status of Microsoft's boss.

Obviously, after Microsoft’s acquisition of Nokia, the control of WP is enhanced; but for Microsoft, to get more market share, more OEM support is needed, compared to iOS and Android, WP is still a niche system.

The data also shows that HTC and Samsung are the only two vendors that have made a difference in WP, with WP share breaking 1%. Although Lumia smartphones are exquisitely crafted, unless other OEMs use the WP platform and launch high-end equipment, the platform's development potential will be limited.

For OEMs, Microsoft is free to open the WP8.1 system to devices under 9 inches. In addition, Windows Phone 8.1 push is about to begin, and users are currently giving good feedback on the system. Is a good signal.
