Windows Phone: Windows Phone is a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft. It is designed to be used on smartphones and other mobile devices, and it features a unique user interface that is optimized for touchscreens.

Blackberry OS: BlackBerry OS is a mobile operating system developed by BlackBerry Limited for its BlackBerry line of smartphones. It is known for its strong security features, and it was popular among business professionals. However, BlackBerry has since shifted its focus to other areas, and its market share has declined significantly.

Others: There are several other mobile operating systems available, including Tizen, Sailfish OS, and Ubuntu Touch. However, these operating systems have a very small market share and are not widely used.

In summary, Android and iOS are the two most popular mobile operating systems, with a combined market share of over 95%. Windows Phone and Blackberry OS have much smaller market shares, and other mobile operating systems have a negligible presence in the market.
