Europe
Is important to understand Europe as the group of countries that form the European Union. This group of countries varies tremendously, from Western Europe (France, Germany, Italy) whose living standards are higher and whose consumption behavior are prone to more expensive products, while Eastern Europe, coming all the way from communism had a shorter time living under capitalism, tend to have lower incomes per capita while picking up cheaper products.
Being said this, 36.2% of the market share goes to Windows, while 7.51% of the market share goes to MacOS.
United Kingdom
While the United Kingdom, belongs to Europe, we need to consider it as a separate entity, since the nation left the European Union in 2016. Windows has been the leader of the operating system market, with 2022 being the year with the highest growth for the American company, with 69.42% of the market share on the British Isles, while MacOS ranks second with 23.24%
South America
Ranging from Venezuela to Argentina in the southern portion of America, this beautiful land contains a promising market for technology companies, since they’ve been experiencing rapid growth thanks to crops and oil and gas.
South America’s disparity between Windows and MacOS is HUGE, since the first one holds 33.55% of the Market Share, while MacOS lays back as far as 1.76%.
This is up to different factors for example, the number of sanctions the USA has imposed on some South American countries (Like Venezuela, and Nicaragua), leading them to get difficulties importing American goods, so, they’ve been keeping old Windows devices while they cannot afford MacOS ones nor the latest Windows devices. Or, because of the lack of Apple official stores.
Canada
