Every quarter and every year, AnTuTu releases lists of most popular smartphones for a certain period. First quarter is over and we already learned about the Top 10 Performance Smartphones for Q1 of 2015. The data were based on the AnTuTu app installed on the said devices and numbers were then ranked. As for the Most Popular Android Smartphones category, we reported that Xiaomi 4 was No. 1 followed by Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Samsung Galaxy S5, Xiaomi 3, and the ASUS ZenFone 5 within Top 5 for the whole of 2014.
For the first quarter, AnTuTu looked into data and the analysis reports and users from all over the globe to see which units are popular in different regions.
