“There are now over 500,000 Android devices activated every day, and it is going at 4.4% w/w.” Andy Rubin, Google’s Android boss shared a new stat. And the same has been announced months back at Google I/O conference last month. But, compared to the rest of the market, Android’s rocking growth slowed recently.
