How people carry phones

coultonp | 20 April, 2007 15:22

I thought I would point everyone to an piece of cultural research performed by ethnographers working for Nokia on the site of Jan Chipchase (For those of you interested in the social impact of phones I can highly recommend Jan’s site as one to watch). The report is very interesting and has lots interesting stuff in it which I wont repeat but interesting points are:

 

“30% of pocket carriers and 50% of bag carriers sometimes or always miss incoming mobile phone communication”

 

“The adoption of phone straps varies considerably between Asia Pacific and the rest of the world”
