Andy Rubin: “There were 3.7 million Android activations on 12/24 and 12/25″

A week ago Andy Rubin told us that Android activations are now at 700,000 per day. Of course as one might expect Christmas should see a boom. If you’re wondering how many Android devices were activated, according to Andy, it hit 3.7 million for just 12/24 and 12/25. If you’re doing the math, that’s an average of 1.85 million per day or a 164% increase. Don’t expect these numbers to continue, but things sure are looking good for Android.

Things aren’t so bad in Apple land either. Earlier reports suggested that both iOS and Android hit roughly 6.8 million combined for the same two days. Now with Andy’s figure of 3.7 million, we can safely say that iOS devices were around 3.1 million. Android was victorious, but both camps have to be quite satisfied.
