Google released statistics showing the breakdown of the various versions of the Android operating system worldwide. The numbers show that about the same amount of consumers have older version Android 1.5 (Donut) as those with new Android 4.0+ (Ice Cream Sandwich); both at 0.6% market share. As more phones become upgraded, they are done so towards Android 2.3+ (Gingerbread) as the stats show more than fifty-five percent of all Android smartphones have this version of the operating system currently. Tablets, while not doing so impressive did have an increase from last month, up from 2.4% to 3.3% market share. Check out the stats after the break...Read Full Article

According to Google's platform version statistics, just above one percent of the market accounts for Android Tablets running Android 3.0+ (Honeycomb), whereas, nearly a quarter of devices are either being upgraded to or shipping with Android 2.3+ (Gingerbread); yet more than half of the market share is running Android 2.2 Froyo. In our last analysis of this data we concluded that Android tablets are currently not selling as well as expected, however, a concrete determination would be after the holiday season.Read Full Article

Based on Google's latest platform stats they release monthly showing the break down of the various versions of Android in the market worldwide, I would conclude Android tablets are not selling well at all accounting for 0.3% market share of Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) software for tablets. By our estimates this would be about 125,000 tablets sold in the first quarter of 2011, which puts it right on par with estimates of 100K a month ago by Deutsche Bank, reported by Business Insider. When you compare this to Apple's iPad 2 sales, which estimated first week sales between 350,000 to 400,000; the results are dismal.Read Full Article

Last time we reported this stat Enterprise grade Android 2.2 was 36.2%, a month later that stat has risen to 43.4% of Android powered devices are running Froyo. Modern Android 2.1 decreased from 40.8% to 39.6. Now obsolete Android 1.6 & 1.5 are whithering with combined 16.9% in the cusp of Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) soon to debut. We predicted November 11th for Gingerbread but crossing fingers for rumored December 6th. Check out the platform version chart to see the mobile OS saturation in the market...Read Full Article

More Android smartphones are launching or updating to Google's more Enterprise ready mobile OS codenamed Froyo. Now at 36.2% of the market share according to stats collected by Google from 33.4% the month prior. Android 2.1 increased a few percentage points to 40.8% (probably as a few new devices such as Samsung Transform recently launched with Eclair). Android 1.6 & 1.5 are whithering away and for good reason as they are obsolete versions of the powerful OS. We're still watching out to see if my predictions of Android 2.3 Gingerbread is going to debut on or before November 11th.

Just a few weeks back we saw statistics Goggle released putting Android 2.1 at 37.2%, now that gap is closing with most Android smartphones in the market running version 2.1.
