This is not an achievement I would be proud of. 10.1% marshmallow distribution? It would have been better if goodle pushed out the updates to devices itself. OEM'S are pretty slow when it comes to updating as the distribution from Google to OEM's is longer and the fact that OEM's still have to apply their own features and skins etc.
This is why I envy apple. All supported apple devices get their updates on time and simultaneously.

I always wonder where does gsmarena finds it's crowd, how come people know so little of phones?

You know that MiUi and touchwiz are only launchers don't you? LOL.

Sagittarius, 08 Jun 2016I think Gingerbread and Icecream Sandwich. Yeah, you are right.
I think Google should stop pretending that forked android is the same as stock android and give us a true percentage of android users and the versions they use.
For MIUI and touch wiz users , use such a different type of OS that I feel it is irrelevant to include them in the statistics (they can have statistics of their own).
If a regular survey was taken from Google then a far higher percentage of people would be found to use marshmallow...

Y... moreatleast get good update, not useless one... apple isnt doing any inovation so their updates could be done even on 6 years old phones. While google is doing inovation and their software needs more new hardware to work good. Thats why we have nexus.

Because new version needs more resources. Its kinda stupid to update 4 years old phone to the latest version.

Google should release 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 dollars phones under android one project or through nexus series so we can have full range of selection with latest android version.
El, 08 Jun 2016Android is much better than Apple. My Galaxy Nexus is still running much smoother than iPhone 4.Quite natural. 4s was launched in ios 5 and now its running on 9.3.2 with 4 major os update. Your nexus 4 was launched in jelly bean and what is it's current os? First you make 4 os update. Then publish your stupid comments.
El, 08 Jun 2016Android is much better than Apple. My Galaxy Nexus is still running much smoother than iPhone 4.Lol I use 6S but still have my old 4S and haven't updated to latest software still runs smoothly :P
Plus I have an option to update or not whereas Android rarely have that XD
Android is much better than Apple. My Galaxy Nexus is still running much smoother than iPhone 4.
Just got my June security update today for my OPO with some new Cyanogen OS features, if I keep getting updates like this I'm going to skip OP3 this year entirely and wait for OP4 with 8GB of RAM with a decent battery capacity instead lol
AnonD-416078, 08 Jun 2016I think Gingerbread had the biggest impact, didn't it?I think Gingerbread and Icecream Sandwich.
