Crittercism has performed testing on mobile platforms, and found that while Apple's release of iOS 7 is the most stable iOS release to date, reducing the crash rate to 1.7%, this still pales compared to Android versions 4.0+, which have a crash rate of only 0.7%.
Not surprisingly, gaming apps with complex graphics and sound crashed more often (4.4%) than other apps, with eCommerce apps getting the best rating of only 0.6%. Some pre-digested coverage from gantdaily.com can save having to dig through pages of research data slides, if you're not looking for the gritty details.
Is this consistent with your experience, or does your particular usage tell a different story?

I have a Nexus 5 and I don't recall it *ever* restarting The only time it's been rebooted is for OS upgrades or when I accidentally hold the power button in too long, which has happened a couple of times. My Nexus 4 was pretty much the same. Before that I had an original Galaxy running Cyanogen, and it did occasionally reboot. I've also had my 2012 Nexus 7 tablet reboot spontaneously a couple of times, generally when running a bunch of stuff while updating apps. It only has 8GB and generally only about 200 MB free, and I would guess that that has something to do with it. It doesn't seem to handle low space situations well.
