Windows tablets, aka laptops with detachable keyboards, are also doing pretty well.

Android keeps having problems because Google is unable to drive the ecosystem to actually care, what a surprise.

That’s almost in spite of Tablet Windows though.
That is to be expected.

There are plenty of countries where iPads are out of reach for regular consumer, and Android Tablets are in practice phones with bigger screens, given how little the ecosystem cares about them, so that leaves Windows devices as only choice for consumers.

How do iPads differ?

iPad apps are made for the iPad with the form factor in mind. There is almost no tablet ecosystem on Android.
