> Google is shunted out of the Microsoft eco-system

iOS is 54.33% of all tablets, Android is 45.57%. Microsoft, Amazon, and everyone else combined account for 0.1%

It doesn't seem like an ecosystem Google has the time to worry about.

I wonder if they are counting Surface tablets in those numbers. I don't think they sell very many, but 0.1% seems too low.

I expect Amazon would be included under Android in those numbers.

54% of all tablets in USA maybe? It's more like 5.4% of all tablets in reality

Worldwide. In the US it is slightly higher. https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/tablet/worldwide

That's the market share, not the number of tablets

What is number of tablets? The total number of shipped Tablet? Why would it matter if those tablet are not in use? Which is what the stats from Stats-counter are showing.

Market share is how much money you make. So for example if apple sells 1M ipads for $500 and android tablets cost $50, at 45.57% it would mean there are 9M android tablets sold. Which makes the proportions more like 11% ipad / 89% android.

Wrong kind of market share. Statscounter is based on unique devices seen across a few million websites, not sales.
