According to the Global 2023 Global Overview Report, ten years ago, mobile phones made up only 12.6% of total web traffic. By the end of 2015, this figure almost tripled to 37.6%.

Statistics show 2019 saw another increase, with mobile phones making 52% of total web traffic, almost 18% more than the year before. After a modest 2% increase in 2020 and 2021, which led to a 54% web traffic share, the annual growth rate more than quadrupled to 9.4% last year.
But, as the mobile`s share of web traffic continued rising, laptops, PCs, and tablets saw their shares plunge in 2022.
