Consumers Want an iPad, Not Laptops, This Holiday Season
If you’re planning to go all out and buy someone a laptop or tablet this holiday season, but aren’t sure which device to choose, then here’s some advice: go with a tablet.
According to a new survey from price comparison shopping site pricegrabber.com, 59 percent of consumers would rather receive a tablet than a laptop this year. Which tablets are on most people’s wish lists? Apple’s iPad and iPad mini.
In the survey of 1,475 U.S. online shopping consumers, 63 percent of respondents said that of all tablets, they would prefer the brand-new fourth-gen iPad, or the iPad 3, released back in March. Twenty-two percent said they would like to receive a Samsung Galaxy tablet this year, while 20 percent want the Amazon Kindle Fire HD, and 13 percent are coveting a Microsoft Surface tablet.
