Microsoft Android win
By Sumir Singh

In the future, Microsoft’s alliance with Nokia may change the equation, but Citi research is showing that right now Microsoft makes more money through its Android licenses than by selling its own phones


A rough estimate of the number of HTC Android devices shipped is 30 million. If HTC paid $5 per unit to Microsoft, that adds up to $150 million Android revenues for Microsoft.

Microsoft has admitted selling 2 million Windows Phone licenses (though not devices.) Estimating that the license fee is $15/WP phone, that makes Windows Phone revenues to date $30 million.
