Mobile browsers have continued to be used to facilitate travel on the Internet, being the order of the day. All users who use computers will often understand the advantages of each browser, reflected in great comparisons on the use of each one. Pages like StatCounter They offer approximate information about which were the most used in 2015, so let’s see the browsers smartphone most used last year. The data was recorded in March.
The most used Smartphone browsers: Chrome vs Safari
Google Chrome: Google’s browser took the cake in 2015 with 28.95% of total use, and it is not surprising. Google Chrome is one of the most complete browsers that can be found for smartphone. It offers synchronization between devices, as well as a special session for guests and the much used incognito mode. But one of its strong points is the data saving that takes place on our device thanks to a compression system it performs, making the Internet connection faster.
Safari: the second of the browsers smartphone most used was following the leader very closely. Safari achieved 27.64% of the usage, coming within two hairs of catching Google Chrome. Apple’s browser also offers synchronization between devices, although what makes it more practical is an incredible optimization of the CPU and memory that takes place in iOS terminals, making it a fast browser that never crashes.
Android Browser: Standard but practical, it took 18.14% of usage in March. It is followed by UC Browser with 10.75% and Opera with 7.15%. The Nokia browser accounts for 2%. There is no doubt that Chrome and Safari were the most used smartphone browsers March 2015 by an exaggeratedly wide margin. This is because they are the browsers recognized as the most functional on the market, and being Safari There is no doubt about the use that was made of the iOS symbol.
In case anyone is wondering, Internet Explorer appeared registered in StatCounter. At an incredibly low number of 1.78%, its usage was really minimal, but it’s no surprise. It is known for its slowness and the hype that appears, with no effort on the part of the browser to block it. However, it was not the least used of all. Below you appear BlackBerry with 0.86% and NetFont with 0.49% consisting of the least used in March, although not as much as those that are not even mentioned in StatCounter, accumulating the remaining 2.24%. Surprising absence of Mozilla Firefox among those of smartphone most used.
The record of StatCounter points out the leading world powers (United States, France, Canada, etc.) as those most partial to the use of Safari, while on another level we see Chrome leading browsers in Eastern Europe, much of Latin America, Russia and Spain. In third position, the Android browser is booming in China. The distribution and use of each browser clearly has to do with the political system and social customs of the place, affecting the market fully and favoring or weakening the use of depending on which browser.
