Long Term Evolution, iPhone 5 Seem to be Skewing Web Traffic Volume, Already

New data from Chitika suggests that Long Term Evolution, used by the Apple iPhone 5, already is affecting web traffic volume. The Galaxy S III has been available in the U.S. for nearly four months. 

At the time Chitika conducted its study, about 18 days since the release of the iPhone 5, the Apple iPhone 5 accounts for 56 percent of web traffic volume,  according to Chitika Insights. 

Other studies have confirmed the impact of faster networks and higher data consumption. The 4G LTE networks are up to 10 times faster than the older 3G network, and LTE will certainly use far more data than 3G users, says Rootmetrics.
