Android 13 is installed on only 12% of cell phones with Google’s system, but it is still the most used system in the world. This is what the StatCounter survey points out, where Android holds 41.4% of the market, while Windows is in second place with 28.3%.
A slow but remarkable shift over the past decade:

Although Windows is in second place on the list, this is the system that has suffered the greatest decline in share in the last 10 years, as in 2013 it held 85.6% of the North American market and now Microsoft’s system makes up 53.43 %.
In return, the Mac is increasing its share in the region. In 2013 it was at 12.86% of electronics in the US and now it holds 31.34% of the market.
On the global stage, Mac has just 7% share, ranking fourth among all systems mentioned in the survey. The third place is occupied by iOS with 17.3%.
The same trend is observed in the Europeian market, where the ranking of operating systems is as follows:
- android: 42.25%
- Windows: 37.07%
- iOS: 11.19%
- Unknown: 6.18%
- macOS: 1.58%
The growth of Android at an international level can be explained by the diversity of devices where it is present, allowing people with all types of budgets and needs to find devices that satisfy their needs, which is not found in Apple devices, for example. .
