[font=Raleway, sans-serif]Windows Phone and BlackBerry head for extinction, leaving the smartphone market to Android and iOS[/font]


BlackBerry, once the flagship brand for government and corporate smartphone users, is in serious trouble, made worse by the fact that its transition to Android isn't going well.

Microsoft's mobile plans are in tatters. While it's not doing too badly in relation to tablet sales, not having been able to break into the smartphone market is likely to hinder overall mobile growth as users become more likely to settle on iOS or Android for both tablets and smartphones.

The death of Windows Phone and BlackBerry is good news for Android because that's the platform benefiting the most.
