Android users use more data than iPhone users

Here’s a surprising piece of data. With its fancy apps and data hungry OS, the iPhone used to be bane of mobile network operators because it was such a data hog. Well not any more, in a recent survey, Nielsen revealed that Android devices are even more data intensive than iPhones.

On average Android users consume close to 600MB of data a month while iOS devices rack up close to 500MB of data usage. App downloads still make the bulk of data usage for both platforms.

This data is of course reflective of the US market. We wonder if user habits are similar in other parts of the world. What do you think?
