Interesting Analytics Data: Mobile Devices – June 2016

I use Google Analytics on this website. Few lines of JS tracking code collects plethora of visitor information.

One of the matrix of Analytics service is, Mobile – under category of Audience Overview.

It’s quite an interesting section. Let’s have a look at it. I’ve taken sample of 1,00,000 sessions. Mobile industry is volatile, current scores are prone to change. I will compare stakes again after one year.

Android is the king!

If we move go back in time to June 2006, Nokia would be sitting on throne, with over 80% share.

RIP Nokia.

Data is combination of both mobile and desktop browsers.

Now that Chrome comes pre installed as default browser in Android devices, its share will only soar up. UC Browser at second spot surprising to me. Last time when I used it, it was heavily bloated and full of spam.

Whenever I see browser comparison, I always remember 😀 :

Internet Explorer Troll
