iPhone 6s launch propels Apple to further gains in global smartphone market, Gartner says Android's cumulative platform share grew 1.4 points to 84.7 percent, still vastly ahead of iOS. The improvement came mostly at the expense of Windows Phone, which slipped from 3 percent to just 1.7. BlackBerry dipped from 0.8 to 0.3 percent, and the company will soon start contributing to Android numbers thanks to the BlackBerry Priv.

I am very much enjoying my MotoG Android phone which does everything that I want and was inexplicably cheap. I spent a little over a year learning Android on the Google Nexus 7 (which I also really like) and now use my iPad for, um. Well, I was using it to watch HBO NOW until they couldn't send a low-bandwidth stream, and then when I moved outside the geographical zone where watching was allowed (have same problem with Amazon Prime purchased right before moving).
