Mobile Offload Will be 39% of Mobile Bandwidth Consumption in 2015
About 39 Percent of smartphone and tablet traffic will be offloaded to fixed networks in 2015, Cisco now predicts. That isn't a complete answer to the question of the relevance and value of fixed networks in the future, but it is part of the answer. Smartphones consume 24 times the bandwidth of a feature phone, handheld gaming consoles 60 times, tablets 122 times and notebooks or netbooks about 515 times the bandwidth of a typical feature phone.
