I wonder if Android ever had that many devices running the latest OS at any point? I've read that it's much harder to stay update as there are too many hands in the pot.
Yes, definitely it does. Although the percentage is low, since there are 10 times more Android devices in total, the absolute number of devices running the latest Android build can easier surpass that of latest iOS.
