Trend information is not detailed niche information

Google trends is merely an insight on what's trending, Google and most likely all the other search engines do not provide detailed information on niche information such as keyword + browser. They do however provide an insight into country, which can be used to GEO target.

Why do not they share detailed niche information?

Well there's many reasons. Firstly nothing is free in this world and gathered data earns Google a lot of money. Because of their Google adwords services, sharing too much information would actually lose them money, a situation would be that people could target a keyword + location + browser and therefor the bidding price would decrease and Google would make less money.

What about harvesting your own data?

The best way of finding out who is using what and searching for what is using some kind of analytic on your website and using that data to advantage, but if you wanted to use this information based on browser type with adwords sadly you can't, Google will only let webmasters filter by device type (Tablet, Desktop Computer and Mobile Phone). Google Webmasters can shed some light as well but also note that if a user is logged into Google your analytic or webmaster tools will not display this information because of the SSL.
