Q3 numbers were great of for Android tablets, poor for Apple

When the numbers kick in for the new iPads, there may be a reversal for Apple, but as of now they’re getting killed worldwide.

It’s not exactly news that Android has taken over the bulk of the smart device market, but in Q3 2013, Android appears to have claimed yet another title from Apple: The most revenue from tablet sales in a quarter. Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty calculated that Android tablets were generating more revenue than iPads based on IDC’s numbers from October, which showed very little year-over-year growth for iPads and a major loss in Apple’s worldwide tablet market share.
