Android always has been characterized by fragmentationDue to the sloppiness of most manufacturers that when they launch a new model on the market, they quickly focus on other models. However, from Google they are doing everything possible to change that and for the moment it seems that the measures are being effective.
Project Treble, was the last attempt by Google to make fragmentation will no longer be a problem on Android. Thanks to Project Treble, Google is in charge of adding support for the components of the manufacturers' devices, while the manufacturers only have to adapt their customization layer.
With Android 10, we were able to verify that something was changing in Android fragmentation. But with Android 11 it is a reality according to the latest adoption data. According to the latest data published by Google, Android 11 has already surpassed the Android data of Android 10 in the same time.
In this graph, Google shows Android 11 deployment per unit rather than a percentage, which makes it difficult to compare how much adoption speed has improved, which is excellent news for all Android users.
Although clearly Android 11 has more units activated than Android 10 At this time of year compared to the same period last year, the market may have grown a lot this last year, so the actual percentage could be lower.
If Google continued to provide version distribution number data, it would be easier see how the adoption of Android 11 has grown compared to the previous version.
However, everything indicates that it is higher, since the number of devices that have reached the market in recent months to the market with Android 11 it can be counted on the fingers of one hand and that large manufacturers, such as Samsung, have not yet begun to update their terminals.
