What is wrong with the mobile internet

Alex Leslie - Feb 11, 05:46 PM


Volantis commisioned YouGov to run a survey. It ran on-line, and was responded to by 4,324 USA and UK consumers over the age of 18. The collected data has been released as the Mobile Internet Attitudes Report 2010.

13% of UK and 17% of USA adults said they access the internet from their mobile phone more than once a day.

51% said that they would stop searching after three minutes if they couldn’t find something on the mobile web.

33% of UK and 25% of USA adults said they don’t use the internet despite having access on their phone – with 32% UK / 23% USA saying that slow network speed are the biggest barrier to using the mobile web more regularly.

In both regions, only 5% said they were satisfied with their mobile internet service – and 32% said they would use the mobile web more often if there were more mobile-optimised sites.
