0dium's actual prices are likely a publicity stunt, but it says quite clearly, citing several different, independent sources, that attacks against a fully patched Android system are now worth more than the equivalent attack against a fully patched iOS machine. That is in part because Android has hardened up recently, Safari and iMessage in particular are highly vulnerable, and also because there was more money recently in iOS and so there was more attention on it. To a certain extent, of course, attacks against Android outside of flagship Samsung and Google phones are much cheaper- look at any patchset and attack, and given that 30+% of the Android user base is on Nougat/Oreo and 10% is on Kitkat or earlier as a whole they are far more exposed.
