In India Lumia 520 clearly rules the Windows Phone market dominating 43.4% of the market, followed by Lumia 720 at 12.7% market share, Lumia 620 at 9.3% market share and Lumia 800 the least popular one, accounting for only 2.7% of of WP market share.
Nokia is the only major Windows Phone vendor holding 90% of all Windows Phone devices out there, followed by HTC in second position with 7% of the market, while Samsung and Huawei having only 1.8% and 1.3% market share respectively. It fully revels why Microsoft want to take over Nokia, because if Nokia moves out Windows ecosystem then Microsoft is doomed with their Windows Phone.
