Back in 2009, a significant difference between smartphones and feature phones is that the advanced application programming interfaces (APIs) on smartphones for running third-party applications[24] can allow those applications to have better integration with the phone's OS and hardware than is typical with feature phones.[25] In comparison, feature phones more commonly run on proprietary firmware, with third-party software support through platforms such as Java ME or BREW.[26]

日本のケータイはスマホでなくとも (スコア:0)
そこそこネットは使えるしアプリも使えるし動画も音楽も使える。
既存ケータイに対してスマホが「○○に使える」という大きなアドバンテージが無い。
片手操作って点では逆に退化していると判断する人も多い。

過去の海外の認識で行けば、日本のガラケー=スマホなんだよね実は。
#海外的スマホ : 通話、SMS、Email以外にもわらわらと機能がついてる多機能携帯電話。
安心だフォン以外をスマホと捕らた場合、この割合は結構変わると思うだけども。

そんな認識はないですよ。S60は今でもスマホOSですし、Series40は昔からフィーチャーフォンOSでしたし。スマホの定義として「OSを搭載しているもの」っていう謎定義もありましたけど、この「OS」っていうのはSymbian S60とかWindows Mobileとか、"それ自体でブランドを持っていてアプリが入れられるもの"くらいの感覚で、内部ではLinux使ってるけどユーザはそれを観測できないもの、とかは含まれませんでした。
フィーチャーフォンでもSidekickみたいに多機能端末はありました。それがスマートフォンと海外で呼ばれたことはないです。

やっぱり、ここでもJ2MEとかBREWのものはスマートフォンに分類されてないですね。

Superphone というのは、日本のガラケーと同じ、非スマートフォンのフィーチャーフォン分類ですね。
