UK is now the leader in mobile phone use



The UK has become one of the world's leading market for mobile phones . Those living in this unitary state consume more traffic on their phones and tablets than any other nation in the world according to a report from Ofcom.
The UK uses 424MB of data each month, an increase of 60% over last year. Japan is second with 392MB per month while the U.S. takes sixth place with 319.
In addition, Ofcom has also seen UK residents spend on average 728 minutes online each week, a little less than 746 minutes last year.
This sudden increase in just one year will likely be because more and more users access to watch TV over the Internet. In addition, according to the Financial Times, one in five people in the UK has its own tablet.
Another of the strengths of RU is the use given to users on their mobile social networking and online purchases are made through mobile devices.
