Dell Stops Selling Android Tablets (pcworld.com)

Posted by msmash on Thursday June 30, 2016 @08:00AM from the taking-a-step-back dept.

Dell is discontinuing its Venue line of Android tablets. Furthermore, the company says it will also stop issuing software updates to its existing Android tablets. The move comes as Dell wants to shift its focus on Windows 2-in-1 devices. As for the other reason, the American company adds that Android market is "oversaturated" and is experiencing "declining demand from consumers." Other Android devices from the company were discontinued some time ago. The company will honor after sales support for people who have purchased Venue Android tablets until the warranty and service contracts expire.

Tons of people. Over 200 million units were sold in 2015. And just Apple alone they've sold 26 million in the first two quarters of 2016. Your anecdotes don't match reality by any measure.
