I updated https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Compatibility/Software_for_using_MediaWiki#Mo... and linked to it on Extension:MobileFrontend.
Feel free to edit and improve it. I didn't make the compatibility table as specific as the desktop one because I don't think we have all that information (when we dropped/added support for specific browsers). I assumed that reading/navigation was supported since the first release (1.15, as it was stated previously) and that we decided which modern browsers to support around 1.22.

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.

Where should I post this? Should I just edit https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Browser_support#Mobile_browsers directly?

From: https://github.com/bestiejs/platform.js/issues/29 "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.
