Blackberry 3rd in Britain by End of 2014 – Blackberry loses in Apple, Android fight as Blackberry Passport to launch in September 2014

Blackberry might be thinking positive, but it’s certainly not making any headway in rainy weather prone England.

This as Blackberry has slipped from third place, ceding that position to Windows Phone based on the stats of eMarketer as stated in “Windows Phone overtakes BlackBerry in the UK, but who wants to be number three?”, published August 26, 2014 -- 13:55 GMT (06:55 PDT) By Steve Ranger, ZDNet. By 2015, its projected they’ll slip even further to fourth place as they lose their grip on a country that used to love Blackberrys.

Despite the focus on Good News about Blackberry as noted in my blog article entitled “Blackberry blogs positive reviews of Passport as Z3 sells out in India - Blackberry Passport may be their ticket on the Indian Express”, they have to face some of the negative news. This is one such example. According to the eMarketer stats:

1.      83.5% of smartphones are Google Android smartphones

2.      30% of smartphones are Apple iPhones

In the face of this dominance is the projected decline of Blackberry's marketshare:

1.      35% decline from previous subscriber levels in 2013 down to 2.4 million subscribers

2.      42% decline from previous subscriber levels in 2014 down to 1.4 million subscribers

By 2015, the marketshare for smartphones will possibly look like this:

1.      85.5% of smartphones are Google Android smartphones

2.      28% of smartphones are Apple iPhones

3.      9% for smartphones running Windows Phone

4.      3.5% for Blackberrys

Jolly Old England and Blackberry – Apple and Android fight as Blackberry is no longer cool

Like the rest of the World, Jolly Old England, like the US of A, see two operating systems locked in a titanic struggle for dominance: Apple iOS and Google Android. As the popularity of other cheaper Asian smartphones powered by Google Android are on the rise are on the rise as noted in analyst IDC Stats for the second Quarter of 2014 as stated in my blog article entitled “IDC Stats for Second Quarter of 2014 points to Asian Smartphone Rise – How cheaper smartphones are slowly killing BOTH Apple and Samsung marketshare”.

So it’s interesting that another advertising marketing company, eMarketer, has decided to throw yet more coldwater on Blackberry’s planned comeback based on the teasers of the specs of the Blackberry Passport as chronicled in my blog article entitled  “Blackberry Passport Specs revealed in Hands-on - Why Microsoft Office and BBM Music will make the Passport Hip to Be Square”.

This even as the Apple iPhone is set to launch in the next 2 weeks from now on Tuesday September 9^th 2014, based on numerous sources and Samsung has already outed the Samsung Galaxy Alpha, which surprisingly looks a lot like the Apple iPhone 5S as concluded on my blog article entitled “Samsung Galaxy Alpha with Metallic Band - Last of the 5” smartphones with decreased Battery Life as the Luddite Camp gets Larger”.

Currently Blackberry is seeing growth in Developing World Countries like India, China and the East Indies as I’d pointed out in as noted in my blog article entitled “Blackberry blogs positive reviews of Passport as Z3 sells out in India - Blackberry Passport may be their ticket on the Indian Express”.

If this is fated to happen in England, a Developed World Country, what of the Rest of Europe or even other Developed World countries like Australia? Stay tuned for more as I track the exciting developments in Great Britain as Blackberry struggles to make a comeback.
