Google’s latest Pixel smartphones are catching on, mostly by taking users away from other Android smartphone makers. According to a new study published by CounterPoint Research, more than half of Pixel 3 converts were previously using a Samsung phone.
Specifically, 51 percent of Pixel 3 buyers were formerly Samsung Galaxy owners, while only 18 percent migrated from iPhones, and 14 percent came from Motorola devices. Of the remainder of users who switched to the Pixel 3, about 17 percent came from “Other” smartphones.
