Android Vs. iOS is what everyone is talking about and there are passionate supporters on either side of the fence. As the battle between Android and iOS heats up, it is very easy to forget the small beginnings of the two mobile OS and how they grew in the ensuing years.

This infographic takes a look at the Android OS, its various versions and its market share over the years. The objective of this infographic is to inform readers about the growth of the Android OS and how it slowly but surely, began to hold sway over the market. It also takes the reader through the names of the various smartphones that first hosted the newest version of the Android OS, over the years.

The idea is to give a fly on the wall look at the growth of the Android OS and allow readers to know how each new version of the Android OS has contributed to its market growth. What readers can note is that, at times, three newer versions were released in a calendar year.
