"And how does that compare with Symbian sales before Elop? I have not looked at a comparison, but it would not surprise me if Windows Phone has not yet caught up."
I can give you a reference that is close to me. Windows phone is 2nd place in latin america (http://techcrunch.com/2013/08/22/windows-phone-snags-second-place-in-latin-america-validating-the-nokia-microsoft-relationship/ http://techcrunch.com/2013/08/22/windows-phone-snags-second-...) where the first is Blackberry and nobody used Symbian.
- asveikau 13y agoI don't think you understood my point. I was saying I would not be surprised if Symbian in 2011 was selling more units than Windows Phone in 2013. For example, just from press reports that I can find on Google, Nokia sold 20 million Symbian phones in Q4 2011, and 4.4 million Windows Phones in Q4 2012.

However, I was just giving an example of a Non-US market where that were not true :) "For example, just from press reports that I can find on Google, Nokia sold 20 million Symbian phones in Q4 2011" That's true, but you have to also considerate the tendency: http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/images/news/smartphoneshipmentsq211.jpg http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/images/news/smartphoneshipmen... At that moment it looks like Symbian was running out of gas.
