Although the company didn’t reveal how many Android One devices have shipped since the program first began, Google did state that Android One activations grew a whopping 250% during 2018. This is thanks to Google’s long list of partners which includes the likes of Xiaomi, LG, and Motorola. The biggest contributor of all, however, appears to have been Nokia.
In order to combat the poor performance of entry-level smartphones, Google released Android Go for smartphones with 1GB of RAM or less a couple of years ago. As of today, over 50% of entry-level Android devices are powered by Android Go.
