LONDON, ENGLAND – Mobile gaming specialist Probability plc recently released the top ten mobile phones used by players in accessing their mobile casinos.
The result of three previous months registration (January to March 2009)through its mobile casino gaming operations revealed that Nokia’s N95 8GB Smartphone ranked on the top ten list followed by the Samsung SGH F480 and at third was the Sony Ericsson K800i. At the end of last quarter last year, the Nokia model was in third spot while the K800i was the top phone model for mobile games.
In the top ten were three Nokia phone models, three Sony Ericsson models and four Samsung models. The top ten list is as follows:
1. Nokia N95 8GB Smartphone
2. Samsung SGH F480
3. Sony Ericsson K800i
4. Samsung SGH J700
5. Nokia 6500s-1
6. Sony Ericsson W5800i
7. Samsung SGH G600
8. Samsung SGH E250
9. Sony Ericsson W910i
10. Nokia 6300
According to Probability CEO Charles Cohen:
“There are important points in here for the mobile and the gambling industries. For people in the mobile industry, this chart shows that consumers who own feature-rich phones are using them for more than playing Tetris and updating Facebook. To me, that’s a sign of greater variety and innovation to come as consumers demand more content from more sources.”
“For those in the gambling industry, they can see from this that there really is a broadly based market for mobile gambling and it’s not just the latest gadgets that they should be targeting. The Nokia 6500 has been around for over two years now and the Sony Ericsson K800i was launched in 2006. The speed with which phones come in and out of the top ten is impressive.”
