     On Samsung phones, Chrome is not the default, but (Samsung) 'Internet'   
   is. Likewise other manufacturers might have their non-Chrome default.   
      
     Of course on Google phones, Chrome is the default, but in the grand   
   scheme of things, Google is just starting as a phone manufacturer. Until   
   about two years ago, Google phones were not even available in many   
   countries, including ours.

     I think my Huawei phones also had another (than Chrome) browser, but   
   I can't remember what it was.
