Google has up-to-date its Android Designers portal to mirror the condition of Android products presently being used, observing that it is new Android 4. Frozen Treats Sandwich software programs are presently being used ins6% of products.

The search giant refreshes its Platform Versions page bi-monthly, planning using all of its Android software releases, now releases the very first statistics for Frozen Treats Sandwich usage because it released.

Although .6% is really a small figure, particularly when in comparison to Gingerbread, which operates on 55.5% from the products presently functioning, you will find only a number of products formally running the�software� a couple of them being the Samsung Universe Nexus and also the Nexus S.

Combined, Android 4. 4..3 counts for the similar percentage as Google s first release Android 1.5 (Cupcake) that is composed of products that haven't been based on the search giant or haven't been offered upgrades by their company to some more recent firmware.

The Following Web approached Enders Analysis analyst Benedict Evans and requested his ideas on just the number of Frozen Treats Sandwich products happen to be triggered in since its launch. He subsequently detailed�a publish about them:

Bing is very vague (to the stage of obfuscation) about Android, but�Google revealed 200m triggered products within the second week of November, and Andy Rubin tweeted 700k daily activations on 21 December. A straight multiplication reaches 230m approximately triggered products today not an excellent number but an improvement on nothing.

Now, triggered products isn t just like products active today (the number to use the ICS % to) because some original copies may have been deactivated. But actually Android only has really been in purchase since 2010 so couple of products tend to be more than 24 months old, and that we can ignore this today. Throughout 2012 I ll need to start making a bid of this.

So, .6% increased by 230m = 13m. (Pretty much: Bing is only giving the share to 1 decimal place therefore it it had been really .64%, for instance, it might be nearer to 15m, as the 230m number can also be not terribly precise)

We've not a way of understanding how this stops working between upgraded and new products (though Google most probably has that data) therefore it can t be in comparison straight to apple iphone sales.

Exist really between 13 million and 15 million Frozen Treats Sandwich products presently functioning We all know the Universe Nexus has offered well since its launch in November this past year and that we also realize that the Nexus S would be a popular Android device. Samsung has additionally been starting Android upgrades for that Universe S II along with other ports make their way via Cyanogen releases.

We won t know a precise figure, a minimum of until Samsung along with other device makers share figures. Frozen Treats Sandwich appears to become off and away to a proper start and can only keep growing because of the support it's from Samsung, HTC, The new sony Ericsson, Motorola and LG.
