Chitika: iPhone 5 Web Usage Surpasses Galaxy S III

Chitika:

The Galaxy S III has been available in the U.S. for nearly four months, and posted impressive sales figures – even beating out domestic sales of the iPhone 4S in August 2012. However, only 18 days since the public release of the iPhone 5, the newest Apple device has overtaken the Galaxy S III in terms of Web traffic volume. Record-breaking sales numbers, along with new 4G browsing speeds which encourage data usage, are the most likely explanation for this tremendous growth.

Telling statistics.

LTE might help explain why iPhone 5 owners are browsing the web more than those using older iPhones, but it doesn’t explain how it so quickly surpassed the Galaxy S III, which also supports LTE. There are profound differences in how iPhone and Android owners use their devices.
