    i do it for cheaper prices when websites do server side tracking. i’ve noticed by accident a few years back that using agent strings for the oldest active microsoft release has a small impact that add up on expensive things like air line tickets.

      oh right okay, i forgot that this is a thing. its noticeable on hotel rooms as well with mobile vs. desktop prices for examples. thanks for the answer.

          oh hell, i have to look myself. have not booked a room in over a year. It was on some site similar to booking.com for vacation rentals in Germany. And i noticed mobile was cheaper by sometimes 5%!
