Friday, December 30th, 2011As reported in a tweet head of Android at Google Andy Rubin (Andy Rubin), the Christmas weekend - 24 and December 25 - has been activated a record number of mobile devices based on operating system Android, it amounted to 3.7 million. Apparently, a large percentage of these devices has been received as a gift (well, or purchased as a gift to yourself).
For comparison, just recently reported 700,000 Android activations per day, but last weekend the figure was more than twice as high. Of course, it is unlikely in the near future we can expect these records: after the Christmas and New Year holidays are traditionally a lull follows.
In addition, during the Christmas weekend, apparently, was activated about the same number of devices based on iOS, since, according to research firm Flurry, number of activations iOS and Android devices December 25 amounted to 6.8 million.
