iPhone 7: DeviceAtlas research agency published data on the use of the most popular smartphones in the second quarter of 2019 in key global markets. The list includes 36 countries. In 22 of them, in the first place is the small iPhone 7.
At the same time, Apple is leading in 31 countries. In addition to the “seven”, customers prefer 8, 8 Plus, as well as 7 Plus.

How objective is the assessment?
Hard to say. DeviceAtlas calculates the popularity of device models based on visits to partner sites that use the platform of the same name. It just determines the model of the smartphone, and also counts the total number of people with such handsets.
In addition to the model, the API developed by DeviceAtlas determines the resolution of its screen, as well as the operating system. This information helps sites adapt content to the required screen resolution, target advertising inserts, and optimize content for a specific device. But the API also has a “side effect”: you can make an approximate idea of the popularity of certain devices.
