In order to appreciate the magnitude of new devices activated on Christmas Day, Flurry established a baseline using the average from the first 20 days of December. Over this period, daily activations averaged around 4.0 million per day, with variance of a few hundred thousand in either direction per day. On Christmas Day, activations soared to more than 17.4 million, a 332% increase over the December baseline. By comparison, Christmas Day 2011 held the previous single-day record, having reached 6.8 million device activations. Christmas 2012 is more than 2.5 times larger than Christmas 2011, which surpassed its own baseline by more than 300%.
There are lots of happy people out there.
I wish somebody would give some figures on what percentage was iOS.
Their tabletop time-of-activation graph, is that in one time zone, or normalized for time zone?
Wouldn’t want to do that now, would they?
If they can give a hard number on the total, I don’t get why they can’t split the numbers out. After everything I’m reading about iPad Mini being yet another hit, I imagine it’s skewed more toward iOS.
there are a lot of happy customers. Then there are the customers who got a Kindle Fire. Not so much.
but seriously..why not break out android versus iOS ? What are they trying to obfuscate here and why?
Those numbers are more valuable.
ah, selling them to interested parties then.
One assumes. Wouldn’t you save your more valuable data for people who’d be willing to pay more?
And of course, misinterpret anyway.
