Across the EU5 region computer usage accounted for 95.1 percent of all browser based page views, with mobile devices (3.2 percent) accounting for a considerable amount of the remaining 4.9 percent of non-computer traffic. 1.4 percent of digital traffic in Europe can be attributed to tablets, while the remaining 0.3 percent to other connected devices such as games consoles.

France and Italy had the lowest share of traffic coming from non-computer devices, whereas the UK leads the EU5 markets with 7.7 percent of all browser based traffic coming from connected devices.
