AnTuTu Benchmark: Google's Nexus 5 Is India's Most Popular Smartphone

Motorola's Moto G takes the second spot, while the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 comes in at No. 3.

 

AnTuTu as we all know lets you gauge smartphone’s performance.. Obviously, this makes it famous among Android users because it’s the platform that supports the latest and greatest hardware in the market. Almost every one of us has always wanted to compare how well our Samsung’s perform against our HTC’s and even Sony devices, so AnTuTu becomes the common ground.

Having the credibility of being the standard for benchmarking Android devices, the company has finally delivered its take on the most popular smartphones for the first quarter of 2014. The results as you can see below are indeed not so shocking but quite in line with what we expected.

Google's flagship Nexus 5 device, built by LG has taken the top position in AnTuTu's list of the most popular Android phone in the Indian market. The results are in keeping with data from the first quarter of the year 2014.
While the Nexus 5 took the top spot, Motorola's mid-range Moto G came in second, followed by Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 phablet. The Korean manufacturer's Galaxy S4, Note 2 and Galaxy S3 also featured among the top ten most popular smartphones in India, a given considering Samsung's market leadership in the country.

AnTuTu also released lists of the most popular smartphones in various countries as well as globally. The Chinese Xiaomi MI 3 has taken the top spot as the most popular smartphone globally, but AnTuTu clarifies that most of its data comes from China, which is why the phone ranks as No. 1.

Until recently the Galaxy S4 was the company's flagship device, and as various sources have suggested, it wasn't as big a success as the company would have liked it to be. Despite now being two generations old, the Galaxy S3 took the spot as the second most popular smartphone globally in the first quarter of 2014.

On a related note, AnTuTu believes that the Chinese manufacturers should begin selling their devices outside of the country, as the number of smartphone manufacturers in China is growing. It also added for heavyweights like Sony and HTC need to transform to stay relevant among buyers in the future.
