Michael DeGusta:
I went back and found every Android phone shipped in the United States up through the middle of last year. I then tracked down every update that was released for each device – be it a major OS upgrade or a minor support patch – as well as prices and release & discontinuation dates. I compared these dates & versions to the currently shipping version of Android at the time. The resulting picture isn’t pretty – well, not for Android users:
Wow. That’s all I got for that one.
Let’s see how the anti-Apple fandroids spin this.
Android-me doesn’t have any retort. I’m just going to have to let real-me simper happily.
(Actually, I forwarded a link to that story to a friend of mine that has just returned his 4S in anticipation of getting the new Nexus.)
Ooo. I’m really curious to know what your friend says about the article.
Great analysis. I wonder how many people out there even realise this, however.
Most likely, 1 out of 1000 people even know the phone has an OS to begin with.
Me, too. I forwarded this report to a friend who’s just bought a Galaxy S2.
It never felt better to be an iOS user than while reading this report.
