Elsewhere marketing has definitely boosted the share from nothing to something. 6 M Lumias.

It all adds up, but you are either too stupid to see it, or too lazy too found out by yourself. The same goes fir Volt. IMO you are simple clouded by , I don't know what exactly. Too bad you put me on ignore, you won't know the truth
It's disappointing that you're still here, but whatever. Regardless, you should leave the definition and meaning of numbers to others, 'cause you suck at it. While leaving out some of the bottom feeders, here's the Finnish picture by OS:

Oh look! People in Finland swapping a Nokia phone for a Nokia phone! Who would have guessed! Now, drill into that dense, trolling skull of yours that the average percentage of new phone purchases does not equal the average market share. And by the way, the average Finnish WP market share from February to June is 6.24%, not 8%, so your bogus number of 30% would actually be 22.5% [.0624 / (5/18)]. But once again, for the people playing at home: 6.24% != 30%.

And nice try cherry picking the small, proud country of origin. Very meaningful.
