Since we were on the topic of Nordic countries we couldn’t leave out Sweden, could we? That’s because it may as well be Norway’s twin when it comes to the division between iOS and Android. According to StatCounter, some 62% of Swedes use iOS devices, while a little over 36% prefer Android phones.

There are many places in the world where Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) rules the lands, where iOs devices, both smartphones and tablets, manage to take the top spot, beating all other Android manufacturers, such as Samsung, LG, Lenovo and so on. There are, however, a lot more where the pressure is too much, where too many big names launch countless devices each year, resulting in lower market share numbers for Apple.

On the other hand, it’s that much more impressive that the Cupertino-based company has managed to even take over so many markets in the first place, a testament to the quality of the devices, but also to the loyalty Apple inspires. While it’s true that owning a pricey Apple device is for some proof of status, for most it’s simply the perfect way to communicate. The company has built a big name for itself over the years, one that it has to be careful to uphold.
