Google said on February 27 in Barcelona that 850,000 Android devices - mobile phones and tablet computers - were being activated every day as the software continued to dominate the smartphone market. The US search giant, which created the Android operating system, issued the figures at the Mobile World Congress phone trade fair in Barcelona.
It said daily activations, in which new devices connect online to Google's servers, were up 250 per cent from a year ago. There were now more than 300 million Android devices in use worldwide, the company added.
Its download platform, which offers application programmes for the Android smartphone and tablets at prices starting from zero, had increased its product range from 150,000 to 450,000 apps in the last year.
