Just a quick update of our "mobile" usage stats for those (geeks) out there who are interested in such data. About a year ago (July 19th 2010) the following was the breakdown of mobile device usage and mobile users comprised just over 3% of total visitors to our website.
| Device type | Percentage of users |
|---|---|
| iPod | 37.6% |
| iPhone | 24.6% |
| Symbian (Nokia etc) | 18.0% |
| iPad (not even officially on sale in NZ yet) | 7.9% |
| Android | 7.5% |
| Blackberry | 2.1% |
| Windows Mobile | 1.5% |
| Others (PSP etc) combined | less than 1% |
As of today (again statistics from the preceding month) the following was the breakdown of mobile operating systems used to access our website. Mobile devices comprised 9.5% of total visits to our website in the last month.
| Device type | Percentage of users |
|---|---|
| Android | 35.1% |
| iPhone | 29.8% |
| iPod | 18.9% |
| iPad | 12.8% |
| Symbian | 1.3% |
| Blackberry | 1.2% |
| Others (PSP, Windows etc) combined | less than 1% |
Being somewhat geeky ourselves we have a good selection of most of the devices listed above and can certainly vouch for the convenience and usability of mobile devices. I expect their usage will continue to increase.
Hope the school holidays are being appreciated by all.
