Christmas Day 2011 must have had stockings filled with electronics, because an estimate from mobile app research from Flurry give details on just how many Android and iOS-powered devices were activated on Christmas Day, as well as the amount of downloaded apps.

Combined, we saw 6.8 million devices activated, an insane 353-percent increase from the 1.5 million average activations per day for the first 20 days of December. This is also 4 million devices higher than the 2010 Christmas record of 2.8 million. Flurry doesn't break down the split of iOS and Android, but if we go with the information of Android chief Andy Rubin saying just before Christmas that Android activations are sitting pretty with 700,000 per day, we know that Apple must be pulling the same numbers.

App numbers were strong, too. A record 242 million total apps were downloaded across both iOS and Android, a 125-percent jump from the daily average earlier in the month. Last Christmas saw just 150 million apps downloaded. Flurry expects a billion apps to be downloaded between Christmas and New Year's Day.
