As a 2010 Android user, I get angry reading how "impressive" these new releases have become while my phone is stuck with huge exploitable holes and a horrible user experience(2.3). I have a feeling the numbers will decline once other alternatives come out because I can't be the only person disgusted with the platform. Can Jelly Bean even play pro audio apps without latency? Will any real pro audio companies even make apps for Android if they actually fixed the latency?
- cageface 14y agoActually Jelly Bean is finally supposed to provide usable audio latencies for audio apps: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2012/07/android-audio-improvements-will-appear-first-on-galaxy-nexus/ http://createdigitalmusic.com/2012/07/android-audio-improvem... Unfortunately, it will probably be a while until there's enough of an installed base of 4.1 to matter, but at least the fix is in.
- ajross 14y agoThose are legitimate criticisms. But they aren't really related to this article. Your 2010 phone is at the end of its contract. This is a study of phones sold in the second quarter of this year (to people who, statistically, have zero demand for "pro audio" apps). There are plenty of reasons for you to prefer your iOS device; please don't pollute a discussion of market numbers with arbitrary flamage.
