In this connection, Samsung, who has become the biggest rival of Apple, also saw strong growth in sales, it had only 1.9 more tablets activated at Christmas than the rest of the year.
the other hand, who definitely dominated the market in this study was Amazon, for Kindle Fire activations rose to 24 times compared to the week before Christmas. Note that Amazon’s tablet does not have the same volume of annual sales iPad, but it’s still amazing the number of people who found it convenient gift (or treat) a Kindle Fire.
ImportantlyAmazon is one of the online stores more present in the minds of consumers, and the company has an important showcase to position their products to those who are looking to buy gifts this season.
