Searchmetrics released their 2016 study on universal and extended search results showing some surprising changes in the Google user interface and results.
Searchmetrics has released a new study today showing the impact of the ever-changing user interface of the Google search results. The study says that now, Google is less likely to show 10 organic blue links. Instead, Google shows only 8.5 blue links on average but supplements those links with featured snippets, app packs, knowledge panels, images, videos and more.

Finally, here is a chart showing the percentage of time you will see a rich result, by type, by desktop versus mobile:
