I somehow doubt it pays more than 5 billion dollars. I mean, even when I had the option I would use Google search and Google Chrome anyway and I think many other people too.

Regarding potential gains, Android has all but cemented its position as the smartphone OS. Microsoft did the same in 1995 with Windows in the desktop market and it has 90%+ marketshare there, 23 years later. It's very likely it will still dominate the desktop market in 2045. Android will be at least a loss leader for Google for decades to come. And they made $10 billion in profit in 2017 alone (of course not all of it is driven by Android, but you get an impression of the scale).
