Android didn't win, they just prevented Apple to have a 100% monopoly on smartphones.

Edit: Apple is certainly taking the lion's share of profits in the phone space. Since Google isn't investing as heavily anymore in Android, the development has slowed considerably.

Define winning - I'd take "Android maintained its position as the leading mobile operating system worldwide in the second quarter of 2023 with a market share of 70.8 percent. Android's closest rival, Apple's iOS, had a market share of 28.4 percent during the same period." [0]
