You all know this is lie right? Most android devices are stuck in the updates limbo due the very low update cycle in android devices. Some devices never received any updated after years, manufacturers simply abandon the devices to try to force people to buy new ones solely for a newer software. I see so much problem in phone manufacturers saying one device cannot get 4.4 update due low ram, but they release "new phones" with 512MB of RAM with 4.4. Some devices are still in 2.3, Google is telling us a blatant lie, no way almost 25% of the devices are running 4.4. Please Google stop lying, the biggest fault in android ecosystem is the very low and slow update cycles, they should be enforced to provide at least 2 ou 3 years of updates and as soon as a new android version is available, sometimes I see devices getting a 4.2 update when 4.4.4 is already out, this is absurd.

So, about 75% of the hardware runs JB+. Good for developers. And certainly good for us. :D
