According to a recent survey, owners of the popular iPhone 4G are reported to have used nearly twice the amount of data of that used by iPhone 3 and other brand's customers. Now the exact reason why so much more data is being used is not perfectly clear at this point, but it's thought that this massive increase in bandwidth usage is a result of certain browsing trends, specifically those that involve online-media. "It's well-known that iPhone owners use lots of cellular bandwidth, but it seems that the iPhone 4S has taken bandwidth consumption to new heights. Owners of the iPhone 4S use twice as much data as iPhone 4 users and nearly three times as much data as iPhone 3G users, according to an Arieso report. However, owners of the HTC Desire S upload more than three times as much data as their iPhone 3G counterparts, beating out iPhone 4S owners by a hair. Users' hunger for data will grow with the introduction of increasingly sophisticated devices and growing consumer demand, Arieso warned. "As you make it easier for people to do data-related stuff, that will create more bandwidth usage," Maribel Lopez, principal analyst at Lopez Research, told TechNewsWorld." Source: Tech News World |
