Nokia has come to dominate the Windows Phone market with a whopping 90% of all Windows Phones being made by Nokia. It only makes sense that Microsoft would want to acquire the Finnish-based company.
A few years ago, many were surprised by Nokia’s decision to throw their lot in with Microsoft and their Windows Phone platform. Symbian was obviously fading, and fast, and MeeGo on the Nokia N9 was a one-time deal for whatever reason, leaving Windows Phone and Android open as options. Android was the more obvious choice given the fact that it would be free for use, and how it is more popular, although it seems that Samsung’s dominance might have been a bit of a put-off. In any case fast forward to 2013 and according to recent numbers released by AdDuplex, it has been found that Nokia commands a whopping 90% of the Windows Phone market.
