Nokia & Microsoft slowly gaining ground

Recently, Localytics conducted a study revealing that since January the number of Windows Phones around the world has risen 312 percent and 273 percent in the United States. During that period, Nokia Corporation (NYSE:NOK)’s holding of the Windows Phone market has risen from 22 percent to 60 percent across the world, and from zero to 32 percent in the U.S.

Nokia and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) will try to take advantage of Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL)’s latest victory in their patent case with competitor smartphone maker Samsung. Sales of phones that runs on Windows could receive a key rise as Samsung products could face a possible embargo and as other smartphone makers consider Windows as an substitute to Google Inc (NASDDAQ:GOOG)’s Android software.
