Majority of them are mobile phones IIRC. Not nothing, but the adoption rate of IPV6 on computer side is still very low.

  Virtually all of India is phones and tablets. It's the highest ipv6 economy. If your criterion is "not handheld devices" then I ask, what makes desktop computers so special? I believe 80% or more of the planets internet is handhelds. You think the US home users on comcast are all PC's?

    > what makes desktop computers so special More on the technical side. Most of mobile devices and their modems need (or even allow) zero to no manual configuration, so adopting ipv6 with these hardwares are easy -- the ISP just need to deal with their side. This is in contrast to "fixed-line" internet devices like computers and their routers.

    > what makes desktop computers so special? Non-casual computing and multiple screens. ex: Work, research, editing, complex creation, engineering... Mobile can sometimes touch those things but the core is mostly done on desktops.

  A lot of people, including young people, throughout Asia don't have computers. A large number of working adults our age (however old you may be) don't touch desktop or laptop computers at all on their day to day. A huge number of people only have phones in their home and only use phones for their work. Plenty of companies also use tablets with specialized apps in places where a western company would use a PC. Finding 20-30 somethings in Asia who are educated and employed who don't know how to use a mouse isn't uncommon. I've encountered it loads of times with new employees in various offices.
