From personal communications to instant information access, mobile devices have become an integral part of consumer behavior. ABI Research further tested this hypothesis examining that the role of mobile in consumers’ media lives is very closely related to three key attributes – time, location, and device type. An approach leveraging an online consumer survey was employed targeting smartphone and tablet device users that use mobile data services. The analysis and findings presented herein focus specifically on the role a media tablet plays in a US consumer’s life.

Some of the areas examined to test the tablet impact on consumers’ daily life include:

  • How do time, location, and device type impact media consumption and behavior? How can consumers’ media profile and activities be holistically characterized by these three attributes?
  • How do consumer mobile activities and behaviors revolve around these three attributes? And how is traditional print and TV media consumption impacted?
  • How can tablet consumer interest, receptivity, and action towards advertising be characterized based on these three attributes? (Or key usage profiles such as tablets at home, at work, while shopping, etc.)
