iOS 8 causes bandwidth spikes nationwide, despite slow uptake.

Title: iOS 8 causes bandwidth spikes nationwide, despite slow uptake.



This article is about how the iOS 8 update for apple products had created a spike in internet gigabits as soon it was released. Also, the article goes over the size of the download not coping on devices with a memory of lower than 2GB. The iOS 8 update has not been as downloaded as the previous 5 updates.

Ø  iOS 8 updates peaked at 70 gigabits a second – 60% increase from the previous day
Ø  The size of the download for iPad users peaked at 2 GB.
Ø  The iOS 8 uptake is slower than iOS 7
Ø  Only 6.6% are using the new operating system, compared to the 15.5% who were using iOS 7 the same period after launch


In my opinion, I believe that the USP for apple’s software is failing to match the aesthetic pleasures of owning the latest iphone, even though iPhones are popular, there operating systems cannot stand a chance against the operating systems of Android.
