Mobile applications development: iPhone is 'unchallenged'

18th January 2010

Apple's iPhone currently rules supreme within the handset market, according to an industry professional.

Leigh Geary of CoolSmartPhone.com explained that the iPhone's mobile applications development is so strong that there are no immediate threats posing any serious risk to the product's market dominance.

He pointed out that there were 50,000 apps for the iPhone after a year, though Android Market has over 20,000.

Mr Geary added, however, that the iPhone could be challenged after enough time has lapsed, noting that most Google apps are free.

He explained that the sheer number of iPhones in the current market means that even a vastly superior product could not immediately displace the famous handset.

"Give the existing handsets time," he said.

LG Electronics plans for Android phones to comprise most of the 20 new releases it intends to carry out this year.

Its handsets will also run on Linux and Microsoft's Windows Mobile.
