This depends on flexbox. As per CanIUse flexBox is fully supported only on Android 4.4 and above.

However as per:

https://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html

More than 20% "active" Android devices out there still don't support flexbox. So unless you are targeting websites only for high end device owners, flexbox only is still not an option.

Edit: Posted it too fast! On CanIUse I checked support for Android Browser. However Google Chrome for Android is supported on 4.1 and above. So most likely many Android users running Android 4.1 to 4.3 may be using Google Chrome. However it's hard to know how many.

This is targeting mobile specifically
