[TYPO3-english] Properly detecting mobile devices with TYPO3 4.5?

[François Suter]

Hi all,

In the latest versions of TYPO3 there was quite a revamp of the client 
detection functions (t3lib_utility_Client) but I'm still puzzled as how 
to properly detect mobile devices. I can see that if I use the 
"all_systems" property returned by 
t3lib_utility_Client::getBrowserInfo() I can check for Android and iOs. 
That will obviously cover a vast majority of the mobile devices/smart 
phones on the market. But there are others. Is there any way to detect 
them using strictly the TYPO3 Core or is it still necessary to rely on 
third-party detection libraries?

Cheers
