The most popular smartphones in The Netherlands
iPhones dominate the scene in The Netherlands, with the world's most popular smartphone - the iPhone 7 - enjoying a 3.03% lead over second-placed iPhone 6S.
The Samsung Galaxy S series are the most common Android devices we see, and it's Apple/Samsung all the way down to 34th on the list, where the Huawei P10 Lite pops up with 0.61% traffic share.
The P20 Lite and P9 Lite claim 0.40% and 0.36% share respectively, but the two biggest names in smartphone maunfacturing (although Huawei are now the second largest) are way ahead in the Netherlands.
Below, we see how use of the popular iPhone (6, 7, 8 and X) and Samsung Galaxy (S6, S7, S8, S9) has changed over the course of 2018.
A slight decline in iPhone 6 and iPhone 7 usage was more than absorbed by healthy gains for the 8 and X.
A similar tale on Samsung's side, with losses in share for the older models - S6 and S7.
The S8 and S9 both gained a little over the year, the latter ending 2% up on its starting share.
