From the previous poll, all respondents answered the same answer, saying that they used desktop or laptop to do online shopping, whereas netbook, mobile web and other devices are not chosen by respondents. This is what has expected therefore it is not surprising at all to acquire such result.
No doubt that every individual or household owned a desktop or laptop for industrial or cosumer use for this day and age. The main reasons are due to the fast pace of Internet and Web 2.0 have been introduced to the generation Y and sooner follow by Z. Most of the activities that people usually do during offline are revoluted to be done online. People do online banking due to the available of brick-and-click banks. People communicate online due to the available of social networking sites. Please imagine that how to avoid the continuous demands toward desktop or laptop which are the most common and traditional devices for online users to access interconnected network? College students, workaholics all owned at least a desktop or laptop for occupation, academic, and consumer purposes.
The method of using mobile web to check the merchandise is kind of inconvenient and insufficient for the online users due to the smaller screen size of mobile device. Thus, mobile web is not using by most of the online users to do online shopping but mostly used by the users who prefer the small and easy-to-carry device. For example, business people who have lack of time and opportunity to stay at office or the people who go vacation. Other than that, mobile web required extra charges from users. Users might face the problem of slow network connection too due to the limited network coverage at the place they located or limited storage space of mobile device.
Besides that, users have neglected the option of netbook mostly due to the reason of netbook is not well-known enough and consisted of specific and limited functionality. More importantly, it is so obvious that desktop and laptop are more accessible than others due to their standard size of screen and faster connection speed which appropriate for users to look through the merchandises and information efficiently. Users do not need to pay extra expenditures for the Internet connection fee due to it was already fixed or free.
To put long story into short, desktop or laptop is the most common, popular, and accessible device for online users to do online shopping. Do you agree?
