Jelly Bean breaks the 10 percent mark on Android devices |
January 04, 2013
The latest versions of Google's mobile operating system, Android 4.1 and 4.2 (Jelly Bean) are running on more than 10 percent of Android devices, chipping away at the Gingerbread version's dominant share, according to Google.
Android 4.1 is running on 9 percent of devices running the OS, while 1.2 percent of them are operating on Android 4.2, as shown by data collected by Google from its Google Play store for a two-week period ending January 3.

That 10.2 percent share compares to the previous period when Jelly Bean's adoption was 6.7 percent, according to ElectronicsWeekly. The bump up is likely due to new owners accessing Google Play after receiving their Android device as a holiday gift.
Google also reports that the version of Android running on most devices remains Gingerbread, although its share continues to decline. Although Gingerbread was introduced two years ago, it remains the most used version of Android.
