View Original Press Release

DeviceAtlas tracks web traffic from hundreds of thousands of partner websites using our device detection platform for web optimization, segmentation, and analytics. This allows us to analyze the current state of the mobile web by sharing some exciting statistics about the most popular smartphones used today.

In this edition of the Mobile Web Intelligence Report we look at:

  • Mobile Operating Systems - Android v iOS
  • The upgrade cycle (iPhone & Samsung Galaxy)
  • The most commonly used screen resolutions, GPU, CPU and RAM

Highlights include:

  • Android is now the most popular mobile OS in Sweden, thanks to a push towards cashless banking and some effective marketing campaigns
  • Despite the recent negative headlines, iOS enjoyed a positive year in the UK, US, Canada, Spain, France, Germany, South Africa and Russia
  • This is despite losing 4% market share in Australia, and 17.45% in Malaysia
  • The iPhone 7 is still the world's most popular phone
  • Smartphones with 2GB RAM remain the most popular, but 6GB is on the rise

Notes on methodology:
All statistics in this report are based on device usage data pulled from DeviceAtlas, a device detection solution. DeviceAtlas works by parsing User-Agent strings which are looked up in the device description repository that includes over 51,000 unique entries.
