Enpocket has unveiled the finding from the latest Mobile Media Monitor, a quarterly analysis which investigates mobile usage patterns in the UK. The research shows that the number of mobile phone owners using 3G services has surged by 250% over the past six months, an interesting trend considering that a number of major carriers are currently rolling out consumer 3G services across Europe.
In particular it's interesting to note the different approach towards mobile services between genders. Males prefer games downloading, while females have a passion for ringtones.
Ringtones are the most mature content area in the UK, with almost one in five or 5.9 million mobile users downloading a mono ringtone in the previous 3 months.
