Google has released today its annual search balance for this year that ends, Zeitgeist 2012, which offers us the opportunity to find out which have been the trends and news that have aroused the most furor on the Internet. An always interesting section for technology lovers is the one that refers to the Gadgets: Which have been the most popular, the most sought after? Well, probing this list, we have been able to confirm the strength of the tablets: 5 out of 10 Most talked about devices are tablets, including the one that ranks number one in the ranking, we tell you which ones.
That the tablet sector is in full growth is confirmed by the sales data for this year and the estimates made for the next, and it is something that will not surprise anyone. However, one more confirmation comes from the hand of the annual report of Google based on search data, your Zeitgeist 2012: as reflected Techland in his analysis of the list, in the top 10 of the Gadgets most popular have crept in nothing less than 5 tablets, although the figure could be 6 if we included the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, the quintessential representative of the hybrids between tablet and mobile that are the phablet.
The list of tablets included in the ranking starts at position number 6, where we find what has probably been the most controversial of the year, despite the fact that its sales records since its launch have been quite modest, apparently: Surface. One step higher, in the post number 5, we see the jewel in the crown of the 7-inch tablets, the Nexus 7, which has not only been a sales success (unlike the tablet of Microsoft) but has contributed to consolidate a standard of value for money among compact tablets capable of putting the competition in this sector red hot, for the benefit of all users. Just above the tablet Google, in the post number 4, we have precisely the one that is its great predecessor, Kindle Fire, which opened the doors to that business model from which the company has taken so much advantage of the search engine and which basically consists of selling the hardware at cost, hoping to obtain real benefits through the sale of content.
The cusp of ranking, however, it is taken over by the products Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. Despite the fact that its successful iPhone 5 occupying a modest ninth position, its tablets have managed to climb to the top of the list. In the post number 2 we find the long-awaited compact tablet from Cupertino, the iPad mini, which can hardly surprise anyone if we take into account that the specialized media have spent a good part of the year discussing every little piece of information that was received about her. And, finally, in the first place we find the queen of tablets, the iPad, specifically the iPad 3. How could it be otherwise, the tablet that strongly dominates the sector is the star of searches for Google, especially the generation that aroused so much admiration thanks to the incorporation of the screens Retina. We will have to wait for the 2013 report to see if the dethronement Regarding sales that experts predict for next year, it will also be reflected in a decrease in the popularity rankings on the internet.
