iPads producing more traffic than iPhones - Mark - 12-10-2011



iPads producing more traffic than iPhones

This is a US based study..
Portable devices are becoming an increasing source of web traffic, according to some dudes from comScore, portable devices accounted for 6.8% of all web traffic in the U.S. this August.

Approximately two-thirds of that 6.8% came from mobile phones while the remaining third came from tablet devices with the iPad dominating, accounting for 97.2% of tablet traffic.
The iPad is driving more web traffic than the iPhone, accounting for 46.8% of all traffic originating from iOS devices in August, compared to the iPhone’s 42.6% share.
iOS’s total share of U.S. mobile web traffic in August was 58.5%.

Just kicking Android ass.

Not really. The study which examines internet traffic only can not be a reliable source. Perhaps Android users spoof their user-agent (Some websites still don't have Android-friendly websites, so spoofing your phones user-agent as iOS is sometimes preffered)
This is not a definitive way of saying "iOS > Android LOLOLOLOLOL"

Load of rubbish.

Not all, but some may. Or maybe Android users use apps instead of websites more?
