Lots of people definitely showed an effect in their rankings. But I'm sure there are also other things that they might have in mind.

No effects in my sites, though I have this site from page 2 goes to page 5 for 3 days and today gets back to it's original rank (effects of the update I guess). Anyways I did make all my sites mobile friendly and passed the google checker, hoping that it will rank higher these coming days..

Thanks for posting this so others will take it serious and update their sites since some are saying the update did nothing.

This update seems to have affected some areas more than others. I wonder what the difference has been.

On my end thus update seems like a scam so far. Unless it is still rolling out. Non mobile sites are ranking the same in keywords I track. It seems like basically the same results whether mobile or desktop.
I think someone at Google even said this would have significant impact on websites. Seems like total bs so far. Even if I google the keyword seo the first results isn't mobile friendly here.

I also experience that local business with un-optimized websites are ranking very high on mobile devices.

I hope by now you've already had those sites updated. Some here say they haven't seen any movement but I'm thinking that they already had their sites mobile friendly and they didn't see any movement because all of he sites above them were also already mobile friendly.

Okay, so on one of my mobile optimised websites, I've noticed that my rankings for various keywords have slightly increased on mobile devices by 1-2 spots, although the number of visitors the site gets each day has remained steady (I would actually argue that they may have gone down a bit) despite this site receiving around 30% of its traffic from mobile devices.
On the mobile SERPs, it doesn't look like any of my competitors have moved too many spaces (Even the ones I outranked only moved a space or two below me). I was really hoping that this update would be a bit better than this.

Hopefully they do rank higher but at the very least they shouldn't go lower.
