Well,
it should come as no surprise that Samsung landed first – after all,
the electronics giant sell the most handsets worldwide, so it makes
sense that an impressive quarter (25.02%) of poll takers have a Samsung
device in their pocket. If you thought that the results would mirror
manufacturers' respective market shares, however, you're in for a
surprise – the runner-up is Sony, with 13.93%, which is a far bigger
piece than the company has from the total pie worldwide. LG, too, is
over-represented among our readership, managing a share of 10.52% –
followed closely by Apple with 10.08%.

Next up, we've got
Motorola (8.69%), the still-enduring Nokia (8.54%), HTC (6.85%), and
Google's Nexus line with 4.84%. Interestingly enough, OnePlus is only
slightly behind Google, with a 4.25% share, so those mythical invites to
buy the One perhaps aren't uncommon. Check out the rest of the scores
below.
