lenovo online store is in second place, ahead of Android phones

In Mexico, for instance, lenovo online store  is in second place,  Android phones. Microsoft is also eating share from a much-weakened BlackBerry.

But Microsoft’s slow progress in search offers a cautionary tale for its mobile efforts. Microsoft’s search engine, Bing, has steadily gained share in recent years to account for nearly 18 percent of searches in the United States, according to comScore.

It has accomplished the gains partly by stealing share from Yahoo, for which Bing has powered searches since 2010. The combined share of Bing and Yahoo has changed little in the last few years.

Google, meanwhile, increased its search share slightly, to 66.9 percent during that period, according to comScore. And the discrepancy means money. Microsoft had nearly $1.3 billion in lenovo K900 smartphone operating losses in online services during its last fiscal year, while Google made more than $11.6 billion in net profit during that same time.

At a recent meeting of Microsoft investors, Steven A. Ballmer, the company’s outgoing chief executive, stated the obvious, but in starker terms than he ordinarily does. “Mobile devices — we have almost no share,” he said.

He didn’t let the statement hang in the air for very long before adding, “But I’m an optimistic guy. Any time we have low market share sounds like upside opportunity to me.”

The HTC One was one of our favourite Android phones around, pairing the luxurious metal body more typically seen on the iPhone with a bigger screen and the customisability of Android. Apparently it wasn't quite big enough though, so HTC has given it a stretch.

The One Max, as it's aptly named, looks rather like the One, but comes in at a beefy 5.9-inches on the diagonal, blurring the line between what we'd call a Lenovo A820 4gb phone or a tablet.
