Here are some cool stats that prove the dominance of women when it comes to buying various gadgets! From a Sex and Electronics article: “Women buy 57% of consumer electronics (to the tune of about $80B), but influence 90% of all CE purchases.” The figures are from CEA and Best Buy respectively, and were presented at a panel at CES on Sex and Electronics and how to design gadgets for women. A unique survey, it has definitely revealed to the world the important role-played by women when it comes to buying consumer electronics. Their list of how to improve gadgets for women are not all that different from a list of improvements that all gadget makers need to adhere by, regardless of the stereotypical sex their marketing team is targeting in sales.

Bottom line: If gadget makers are looking to make some profits they need to please their women buyers.
