Now the holiday shopping season is over for the year, so Amazon has calculated the numbers and it has found that 60% of its holiday sales this year came from a mobile device. That number is up from last year when more than half of Amazon’s holiday shopping came from a smartphone or tablet.
Black Friday was the shopping day when mobile shopping showed the largest growth for Amazon this year, not surprisingly. It looks like everyone got some deals while on their smartphone.
Amazon’s app for smartphones increased its shopping revenue by 100% this year. That might mean that smartphone users are getting more comfortable using their handset for shopping. It also shows that mobile users don’t mind shopping using an app instead of a website.
Amazon also revealed that the most popular tablets it sold this holiday season were the Amazon Kindle Fire HD 7, Amazon Kindle Fire HD 6 and the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 7. Which are also not surprising developments. So what about smartwatches? Which one topped Amazon’s holiday sales charts? Well, they didn’t really sell so hot, but the best selling watch sold by Amazon this holiday season was actually the Disney Kids’ Frozen Anna and Elsa Digital Watch. I guess a lot of kids are rocking those right now.
