Windows Phone OS now on less than 1 percent of phones
 

According to the latest report, Microsoft's Windows Phone now holds less than one percent of the market share due to low sales in the Q1 2016.

According to the latest smartphone sales report from Gartner, Windows Phone OS is pretty much dead and while the worldwide smartphone sales have increased by almost 4 percent in the latest quarter, sales of Microsoft Lumia devices have actually dropped down to 2.4 million devices, which is about 0.7 market share overall.

The latest numbers are a significant decrease from 2.5 percent market share the OS has held in the same quarter last year. As noted, Microsoft only sold 2.3 million Lumia devices in the last quarter which is a 73 percent drop from 8.6 million devices it sold in the same quarter last year, which resulted in a smartphone revenue drop of 46 percent.
