Incorrect. Android phones tend to shuttle users to other google services which provides what the company sells, namely advertising.

Google+, google search, chrome, etc are all used here and all direct users to google.com and/or use advertising to make the service profitable.

You didn't read what I posted. People who buy cheap Android phones use their phones less often. That means they use Google services less often, as well.

Again, if marketshare is so important, why does Apple make more (or at least a similar amount) from the iPhone than Google does as a company?



I doubt that apple makes as much on the iPhone as it did bc it is starting to get passed up, and it never was bad at least marketshare wise for them. Siss you see the thread where 3 out of 4 smartphones sold are android? Take out RIMM and windows phone from this 25% and you have apples marketshare, which has really declined lately. And they don't need as much marketshare bc the consumers of apple products have more money, but that doesn't mean that apples top revenue spot can still remain with things going downhill a bit.
