After 1 year has passed since the release of Android 11 and even the distribution of Android 12 has begun, Google has announced the usage rates of Android operating system versions. Considering that the newly released smartphones come with the Android 11 operating system, you may think that the most popular operating system is Android 11. But actually that’s not true. The most popular Android version at the moment is still Android 10.
According to the figures announced by Google, 24.3 percent of users are using Android 11. However, Android 10, which was released in 2019, is still the most used Android operating system version with a rate of 26.5 percent. Android 9 comes next with 18.2 percent. It is very interesting that Android 4.2 Jelly Bean is still on the list.
The Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system was a version that Google put into use in 2011 and was a very popular version at that time. Although almost 10 years have passed, the rate of people using Android 4.2 is 0.2 percent.
Statistics once again reveal the conclusion that Android users are somewhat flexible about updating. Because when looking at the iOS side, it seems that the vast majority prefer the latest version.
