Mobile Phone Survey Results

Here the results that I have put together from my mobile phone surveys that i sent out. I felt it necessary to gauge what sort of devices were popular and what people use their mobile phones for. With this information in mind we would then have a better idea of what our user might want or expect from our website.

5 of our testers were males, 3 females

I wanted to make sure i covered a range of age demographics for varied results.

 I wanted to get an idea of roughly how many people had any mobility/visibility issues.

I discovered out of the people I tested there was a wide range of phones, this would be very useful to gain some good usability testing results. This represents the general population, there are a wide range of popular mobile phones in todays market.

most of my testers still prefer the older style QWERTY Keyboard, however the touchscreen device wasnt far behind, this is becoming ever more popular.

As i predicted, most people still own a pc, it is the most popular choice. 

The majority of the population do not use their mobile phones to browse the internet. The smartphone owners were the only ones who said they use their phones regularly to browse the net whilst 0% of the non smartphone users use their phones for browsing.

Out of the testers who said that they use their phones for browsing,  most used their phones for social networking, browsing websites and reading emails.

75% of the population have the ability to zoom in on their mobile phones, whilst only 2 of our 8 testers could not zoom in, these people did not have smartphones, one was a Samsung C3050 and the other was an iPhone. However other iPhone users i tested were able to zoom into content.
