Smartphones dominate the UK market with Android rising 350%

Market research company GfK RT released a report on Monday that revealed this simple fact: the British love smartphones. According to GfK’s June figures, smartphones are growing steadily in the UK and now make up 73.5% of the contract market; up from 55% in Q1 2010. Android is also exploding in the UK growing over 350% from 3% of the contract market share in Q1 2010 to 13.5% market share in Q2 2010. With the iPhone 4 and the Android-powered Samsung Galaxy S now available in the UK, look for these numbers to steadily increase throughout the rest of the year.
