Android had 59 percent market share, while iOS had 23 percent share of the 152.3 million smart phones shipped in the first quarter of 2012. Those statistics do not exactly related to "sales," though.
During the first quarter of 2011, the two operating systems held a combined installed base of 54.4 percent. IDC notes that Android and iOS have grown their share over Symbian and BlackBerry, Linux and Windows Phone 7/Windows Mobile.
