It’s Friday, Jan. 13 (hopefully you aren’t superstitious…) and the last day of CES 2012. We have some more insights to share from day four of our #CESinfluence project below. If you check back here on Tuesday, we’ll have a CES week wrap-up, taking a look at the sentiment around the announcements, highlight some influencer favorites, and discuss the brands that came out on top.

Incase you’re just joining in, we’ve been tracking the CES 2012 Mobile and CES 2012 TV A-lists created at the beginning of the week, and analyzing the conversations among the influencers throughout the show*. We’ve taken the highlights we find and shared them with you so you have an easy and quick resource to refer to for the conversations going on around #CES2012. Take a look!

CES 2012: Mobile

Note: within our mobile list, the keywords we used contain both mobile providers and mobile manufacturers. Because of the ability to filter keywords on Traackr Influencer Monitors, we are able to track completely separate conversations among the same group of influencers on one Monitor easily and accurately. This is what we’ve done on our CES 2012 Mobile A-list. To view the keywords we have identified for this list, please click here.

AT&T has continued to lead mentions among influencer conversations at CES this year. Verizon has maintained a close second, but failed to surpass AT&T.

Windows and iPhone are still neck-and-neck in the lead for mentions among mobile manufacturers, but Windows has ultimately maintained its lead in day 4 of CES 2012.

CES 2012: TV

On day 4 of CES 2012, Samsung maintained its top spot in mentions among the CES 2012 TV influencers. Samsung and Google kept a close lead throughout the week.

Among the less mentioned manufacturers, Apple TV maintained a very comfortable lead, but appeared to be declining in popularity as the show wrapped up. More on this trend will be discussed on Monday’s wrap-up.
