10 most popular smartphones of Q4 2015: the result is … surprising

In our technology world, there are certain smartphone producers that always stand in the top choices among users, like Apple, Samsung etc. And the report from Antutu made sure to surprise some of us with the unexpected result of those most popular devices. Let’s see what people in the world had come to Antutu to check. With 5.79% and 4.68%, Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy Note 5 rank at top 2 among the 10. Seems like Samsung smartphones is really a big thing in any market.

However, Asus Zenfone 2 – known as one of the best budget smartphones worldwide, only ranked 7th out of 10, which surprises quite a lot of people. The same happens with Huawei Mate 8 when only ranking 9th out of 10. Among the 10 devices listed in the list, you can also notice the absence of some big brands like Sony, Apple and Lenovo and the dominance of Chinese smartphones compared to others (8 Chinese in total)

Many people are mentioning that, because Antutu is a Chinese Benchmark, the result is somewhat affected more by Chinese users and those from the same areas. Yes, we are not denying this. In fact, any test result can be very relative. What we want to say here is that, for a famous Benchmark used by the majority of users, the recorded figures of top 10 popular smartphones could be very unpredictable.
