Despite
the fact that the Android growth is leveling off in the United
States, Android is still the number uno mobile OS all over the globe.
Thanks to the Android application development companies who are
developing and delivering a lot of Android apps every other day.
Handset Detection was recently analyzed among 35+ millions of Android
devices in 7 countries across 4 diverse categories viz. major models,
display and screen sizes, number of exceptional devices, and based on
the percentage of smart phones in comparison to the tablets.
Every
country seemed to use Android devices more – which is a well known
fact. 4 out of 5 users seem to use Android phone also. This is
definitely good news for Android app development companies since they
are the ones who are more benefitted indirectly in rising Android
usage.
In
the ruling smartphone users - U.S.A the top models used are as
follows;
-
Samsung
Galaxy S III
-
Motorola
DROID RAZR
-
Amazon
Kindle Fire
-
T-Mobile
Samsung Galaxy S II
-
Samsung
Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch
What
is more curious is that the U.S users definitely have a huge taste
because they didn’t simply jump into the LG Google Nexus like many
other country users. Instead they had varied choices and used smart
devices from various manufacturers like Samsung, Motorola, Amazon,
etc.
The
most popular screen size in the U.S. is 1280 x 720, closely followed
by 960 x 540 and then is 480 x 320. Totally, there are 1,300+ unique
devices used. That is a pretty good number Smartphones are
appreciably more popular than the tablets. There are totally almost
86 percent of smartphone Android users while only 14% use Android
based tablets.
The
most commonly used devices in Great Britain are as follows;
-
Samsung
Galaxy S III
-
Samsung
Galaxy S II
-
Samsung
Galaxy Ace
-
Google
Nexus 7
-
Samsung
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
As
far as the leading screen sizes are concerned, 800 x 480 is ruling,
closely followed by 1280 x 720 and 1280 x 800. It seems like UK users
are more into medium sized screen than bigger screen resolutions.
There are almost 961 unique Android devices in UK with 78 percent of
the users using smartphones.
While
these are the comparisons of the two big nations other nations too
seems to be on par with the two ruling nations. France however seems
to have more tablet users than rest 6 countries surveyed.
Android
apps usage are steadily rising and it seems that it is a jackpot
indeed for the Android application development companies.
