[Amdocs]: Newer Smartphones are Hungriers (for Data)

Actix (recently acquired by Amdocs) reported some interesting findings from a research it has conducted during 2013 analyzing 100,000 devices in Europe and North America:

• "Smartphones launched in 2013 consumed more than seven times the data of those launched in 2009 and 40 percent more data than 2012 models, according to Actix’s latest research on global mobile users
   
• Apple handsets dominate data use with almost twice the data per session than the average Android phones
   
• Tablet users consume more than twice as much data as smartphones, while MiFi devices drive almost nine times more data consumption"
