Game and app publisher Animoca has used data from its network to catalogue which Android devices and manufacturers are most popular among its users.
The figures, which cover activity between 25 March and 2 April, show that Samsung is far and away the most popular brand among Animoca's users.
In fact, the Korean manufacturer boasts more users than every other manufacturer combined.

Samsung's dominance is also evident when you examine the top 20 Android devices used to play Animoca games.
The Galaxy S II takes the top spot, and the list includes nine Samsung devices in total.
But second place belongs to the Kindle Fire, despite the fact that only 27.5 percent of Animoca users are in North America - the only region in which the device is currently on sale.
Seeing off competition from worldwide brands such as HTC, LG, Sony Mobile, and Pantech, Amazon's strong showing suggests that the device has not only sold extremely well in North America, but that its audience is interested in gaming, too.
It's something that chimes with market research from Newzoo, which put Kindle Fire's install base as more than 10 million, potentially as high as 16 million.
