Is Android turning any significant profit? I'd be surprised.
- AlotOfReading 4y agoI imagine the licensing revenues are a literal rounding error, but it's hugely profitable if we include things like Play services. The latest numbers I could find accounted for $48B in revenue in 2021, compared to $256B for all of alphabet. It's pretty substantial.
