That looks like a good place to me and I like that it's not a
mobile-specific page. We used to have a separate page documenting mobile
browser support way back in the day, but I think it's since been deleted.
It might be worthwhile to link to wherever this gets published from the
Extension:MobileFrontend page.

"the new S4 stock browser is actually using a bastardized version of
Chrome Mobile, but locked at version 18.0.1025.308".
they quote the ua as: "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.2.2; en-au;
SAMSUNG GT-I9500 Build/JDQ39) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko)
Version/1.0 Chrome/18.0.1025.308 Mobie Safari/535.19"
This UA might easily be mistaken for the vanilla version of Chrome..
There might be more browsers like that. Thank you manufacterers.
