Aren't non-Android/iPhone phones still wildly popular outside the U.S?



Yep. The view that everyone is using smartphones is just the result of being inside a US-centric bubble. Well, and parts of Europe too.


As is the view that Symbian is not a smartphone OS...


Depends, Android & iPhones are still very very popular in the EU, however pre-iPhone all 'smart phone' would have meant either a blackberry or a symbian.
