what is “Buzz”?
each month, we find out the “buzz”
of a dozen or so recent or
upcoming releases/products for
technology, telecoms, media and
entertainment
we find out 3 key buzz metrics per
news item/release/product:
1.
level of awareness &
familiarity
2.
degree to which it generates
discussion among peers
3.
degree of excitement it
generates
in this report, we look at:
The Sun publishes pictures of Prince Harry naked in Las Vegas
Samsung Galaxy Note smartphone
LG Optimus 4X HD smartphone
Orange & T-Mobile to offer UK's first 4G mobile network
Google forces sites that link to pirated music/video lower in its search rankings
Samsung ordered to pay Apple $1bn in patent lawsuit verdict
The Bourne Legacy movie
The Expendables 2 movie
Darksiders II video game
Guild Wars 2 video game
Sleeping Dogs video game
Madden NFL 13 video game
New series of Doctor Who starts on BBC1

Members of the Royal family have featured
heavily in the news in recent weeks. The Sun
publishing naked photos of Prince Harry in
Las Vegas was the first of these and proves
the story most people are aware of at all in
this month’s list (9 in 10).
Bourne Legacy is the movie release attracting
most attention this month with just under 9
in 10 at least aware of it. However, the
proportion who are ‘familiar’ with it falls
short of other blockbusters in recent editions.
Samsung-Apple patent issues have frequently
appeared in our lists over the last year but
the recent lawsuit verdict in Apple’s favour
has been the most recognised with almost 3
in 5 familiar with the story (compared with
just 3 in 10 familiar with the legal battle
covered last year).
Video games releases included in this wave
have relatively low profiles with no more
than 1 in 4 aware. However, among those
who are familiar with these games, they do
generate considerable discussion and
excitement – see later.

Although the majority of consumers
are unaware of them, the 4 video
game releases covered in this
month’s Buzz have got those in the
know talking the most.
Sleeping Dogs is the title generating most
discussion (among 2 in 3) and will have
considerable interest from fans of the True
Crime series, from which the game
originates, having been taken on and
published by Square Enix this year.
(The other games prove even more talked
about but have less discussion overall.)
The release of Optimus 4X HD has caught
the eye among those familiar (3 in 5), LG’s
new smartphone being discussed more
readily than Samsung’s Galaxy Note.
Both Prince Harry naked and Doctor Who,
despite being the news stories people are
most familiar with, fall notably down the
order of discussion, although the latter still
generates a great deal of interaction
among 1 in 5 of us.
Of the two movies featured, The
Expendables 2 has generated slightly more
conversation than Bourne Legacy.

Looking at the levels of discussion
among the whole population, rather
than just those familiar, we see the
order is broadly in line with that of
awareness.
Prince Harry naked just tops the poll,
ahead of the return of Doctor Who,
although the latter stands out as the news
story being talked about most in great
detail (among just over 1 in 10).
The Bourne Legacy is third in our list, just
ahead of the Samsung patent infringement
story, and notably more talked about than
The Expendables 2 movie (although behind
other movie releases covered in previous
editions of Harris Buzz).
The Samsung Galaxy Note generates
considerably more discussion among the
total population (1 in 5) than LG’s Optimus
4X HD (1 in 10) and is fairly comparable
with the level recorded for Samsung’s
Galaxy S3 when released earlier this year.
base: all GB 16-64 (1,833)
Despite being the most discussed from
those in the know, low awareness of the
four video games means they are at the
bottom of this list.

As seen with the levels of discussion,
all four video games feature highly
for excitement among those who are
familiar with them.
Sleeping Dogs has a slight advantage over
Darksiders II for the total excitement
surrounding its release but it is the latter
which stands out for having the highest
proportion of ‘very excited’ people (1 in 3).
LG’s Optimus 4X HD ranks higher than the
Samsung Galaxy Note for generating more
excitement among those familiar, as it did
for discussion – however, as seen overleaf,
the lower total awareness pulls it down
among the total population.
Doctor Who also features highly for
excitement but has a greater proportion of
people who couldn’t care less than other
news topics that feature around it.
EE’s announcement to bring 4G to 16
major cities before Christmas has created
a stir with half those in the know telling us
they are at least somewhat excited.
As is typical, new releases and product
innovations feature more highly than most
tabloid headlines and that proves the case
this month with 1 in 2 saying they couldn’t
care less about naked royal photos.

When we look at excitement across the
total population, Doctor Who jumps back
to the top of the table with the highest
proportion of ‘very excited’ people
among both men and women of all age
groups.
Both movies feature highly for excitement, The
Bourne Legacy sitting in second place ahead of
The Expendables 2 by virtue of having a greater
number of individuals who say they are
‘somewhat excited’.
The excitement shown among those familiar
with EE’s 4G network is reflected here as the
announcement ranks higher up the list than on
awareness or discussion.
By contrast, the high proportion of disinterested
people in the Prince Harry naked photos sees this
news story are lower down the ranking.
As seen for discussion buzz, the low awareness
of the video games results in all four sitting
towards the bottom of the list alongside
Google’s move to lower sites featuring pirate
music/video content from its search results.
