Localytics based the percentage on more than 40 million unique iPhone devices running on software by the analytical firm.
While the iPhone 5s managed to top the iPhone 5c's 1.7 percent, the new smartphone's percentage is no where near the iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, and iPhone 5 percentage points.
The iPhone 5 secured first place with 39.8 percentage points ahead of the 32.9 percent for the iPhone 4s. The iPhone 4 placed third with 20.2 percent.
All the countries Localytics analyzed, including Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Japan, United Kingdom, and United States, to name a few, the U.S. saw the most iPhone 5c usage with 33 percent to 67 percent for the iPhone 5s.
"The Germans are the biggest fans of the high-end iPhone model, with the 5s holding almost a 9 to 1 edge over the 5c," noted Bernd Leger of Localytics.
As Latinos Post reported, 33.8 million iPhones were sold during the latest fiscal quarter, which is a record compared to the same period last year. The September 2012 fiscal quarter saw Apple sell 26.9 million iPhones.
The iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s sold 9 million units during its first-weekend sales when it launched on Sept. 20. The Cupertino-based organization didn't reveal specific numbers for the iPhone 5s or iPhone 5c. The 9 million units for both phones were 4 million units more than the first-weekend sales of the iPhone 5 in September 2012, which sold 5 million units.
As of Oct. 25, the iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s are available across Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, French West Indies, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macau, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Reunion Island, Romania, Russia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, and United States.
