It is maybe due to our readership has outpaced in markets where the phones of Google are becoming less popular than other brands.
For actual phone models, we have a wide variety in our results in order to insert them into a graph. Individual devices hardly scrape 1% each nowadays. However, there are some notable devices that fall under the top 25. Apple’s iPhone and iPad hold up the top two places, accounting for 18.6% and 15.5% of all the devices, respectively.

To be precise, 30% of you are currently running android 11, which is a piece of great news from the security viewpoint. A slightly further 37.7% are currently running a bit older android 10, which is not ideal but pretty good. It’s because a few OEMs are pretty slow in order to update their devices and eventually drop support.
Also, some of you are still on android 9, which is an outdated OS version and not good from a security standpoint. Sadly, Google does not update its android distribution numbers anymore, even via android studio.
