## 10% of online purchases -- and 88% of tablet purchases -- were made on an iPad
[](https://static.hsstatic.net/BlogImporterAssetsUI/ex/missing-image.png)
FORTUNE -- Apple ([AAPL](http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=AAPL)) devices loomed larger than expected in IBM's ([IBM](http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=IBM)) [final report](http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/early-promotions-drive-record-online-sales-for-thanksgiving-fuels-black-friday-retail-surge-reports-ibm-180691231.html) on this year's surge of online buying Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday.
Online sales were up both days -- 17.4% and 20.7%, respectively -- from 2011. But the biggest surge came from mobile devices -- and in particular from purchases made on an iPad or iPhone.
The highlights of [IBM Digital Analytics Benchmark](http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/early-promotions-drive-record-online-sales-for-thanksgiving-fuels-black-friday-retail-surge-reports-ibm-180691231.html)'s Apple-related findings:
- **The Mobile Factor**: Mobile buying soared, with 24% of U.S. consumers using a mobile device to visit a retailer's site, up from 14.3% in 2011. Actual sales from mobile devices hit 16.3%, up from 9.8% in 2011.
- **The Apple Factor: **The iPad generated more traffic than any other tablet or smartphone, accounting for nearly 10% of online shopping. This was followed by the iPhone at 8.7% and all Google ([GOOG](http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=GOOG)) Android devices combined at only 5.5%.
- **The iPad Factor:** The iPad dominated tablet traffic at 88.3% followed by the Barnes and Noble ([BKS](http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=BKS)) Nook at 3.1%, Amazon ([AMZN](http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=AMZN)) Kindle at 2.4% and the Samsung Galaxy at 1.8%.
That only 5.5% of sales were made on Android devices was a bit of a shock given their rapid gains in market share in 2012. According to IDC, Android claimed 75% of the smartphones sold in the third quarter to Apple's 15%.
Below: An IBM graphic summarizing its full findings.
