Android has stuff support for websockets, hence why we chose to use Socket.IO
See: http://caniuse.com/websockets
Ben Grapevine:

But I can't use Java with Socket.IO.
I will first test my Java web socket server with my Android phone. If the communication doesn't work, I will try installing other web browsers to see if that helps. If not, I will go through all the pain to use Socket.IO.

Socket.IO is actually easier than raw WebSockets, trust me.

I agree completely, it's a better idea to use Socket.IO especially so you can learn more about networking and expand your knowledge as well as provide better support for mobile devices.
There's no problem in learning something new and useful. I hope you take this decision.
