Tablets will grow with more adoption whereas about a 4.3% increase will be added to the adoption of mobile devices. On the other hand, there is going to be big declines in the shipments of desktop computers, laptops and notebooks. Users are lessening the use of desktop or laptop PCs for almost all sorts of computing requirements, regardless of their locations. It is just a global trend now.

... the need of a dedicated native app for each new platform. With the feature of cross- platform compatibility, this technology just not reduces the development cost to a great extent, but minimizes the time-to-market too. Also, with the combination of native technology, hybrid apps can be designed and develop to use several device specific features which a pure web app cannot do.

HTML5 applications with cross platform compatibility do not get interfered for their functioning and performance by low-end or high-end hardware of a device. There may be different performance of a native app on different device but with HTML5 based application, this issue can just be removed.

However, HTML5 is now in its implementation phase and the final specifications are expected to be ratified until 2014, but recent findings of data research firms suggest that there is a rising adoption of this technology across the web development, mobile web development and mobile web app development domains. A survey conducted by Evans Data informed that 75% out of 1,200 developers are already using HTML5 technology in various sorts of software and web development projects. The reasons to prefer this technology over others include simplicity of implementing apps, capability of cross-platform compatibility and easy development cycle and minimized development costs.

HTML5 has 20% higher adoptability rate than Flash of Adobe and Sliverlight of Microsoft as contents based on these two do not run without additional plug-ins or add-on type software. Many firms around the world have already begun to give importance to HTML5 technology and avoiding native or platform-specific app development.
