As far as I know it’s also used on embedded devices like barcode scanners at Tesco. Those either run Windows or Android. Ancient versions in both cases. Unfortunately it seems the model number disappeared from my search history so I don’t know which versions for sure. I think it’s either Android 4.4 or Windows CE.
But in those cases the Google Play services probably don’t matter.
One wonders if dropping Play Services support is enough to motivate a user who is already sufficiently determined to use a phone this outdated.
