Even though Apple device sales have stagnated in the past few years, it has added more active iPhone users every year. Apple has switched its focus to services and other long-term revenue sources, as customers keep their phones for longer. However, at million units, Apple will have to find new markets to add more active units. Since then, Apple has struggled to entice new customers and iPad owners typically hold onto their device for more than three years.
Apple saw an impressive 57 percent increase in iPad sales last year, primarily due to the coronavirus pandemic. This was not enough to reach the peak, however it reverses four years of sales in the million range.

Checking your phone at least every ten minutes is a pretty common thing. For some, this is out of necessity, especially those who use their phones for work. No matter the reason, this statistic reminds us that we are pretty attached to our phones.
Again, when you stop to think about it, this number might not seem all that shocking. Let's play around with it to put it into context. As we just said, if we sleep for eight hours, then we're awake for 16, meaning about one-third of our waking lives are spent looking at a phone.
To extrapolate this out a bit, this means that we spend 1. If we live to be years-old, then we will have spent a total of 15 years of our lives looking at a phone. Of course, this isn't all bad. We use our phones to talk to people, learn, entertain ourselves, etc. Yet, given we have just one life to live, it's worth asking if we want to spend a third of it staring at a tiny screen. Maybe we do, but no matter what, it speaks to something we can sense intuitively: we are hooked to our phones.
As these numbers might suggest, there may be such a thing as smartphone addiction. And there is! In total, around two-thirds of people admit to suffering from nomophobia; the term used to describe the fear of being without our phones, a surefire symptom of addiction.
Whether or not this translates into an actual clinical addiction is yet to be seen. However, the fact remains that we use our phones a lot and don't know what to do with ourselves when we don't have them.
To keep building this case that we are hooked to our phones, consider that around half of all Americans say they can't live without their phone. This is remarkable, considering that 20 years ago, none of us had these devices. What's interesting is watching the elderly. They spent 75 percent of their lives without the internet, but many will now turn around if they leave the house without their phone.
Again, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. People need their phones for work, and they do provide a security blanket in the event of an emergency.
But these numbers do provide us with some insight into how these devices are shaping our lives. They allow us to examine our habits and decide if we want to make some changes. Part of the reason why we have become so attached to our phones is that we are getting them when we are younger and younger. There is immense social pressure to have a phone in high school, but around half of all kids get their first smartphone when they are just ten. What's the right age to introduce kids to smartphones?
This is a question we've yet to answer. According to Bill Gates , his kids didn't get one until they were 14 or high school. Everyone makes this decision for their own reasons, but it's interesting to see that most people give their kids a phone three years before one of the world's most influential tech gurus gave one to his.
Shortly after kids get their phones, they head to social media. This is normal; one of the reasons we have smartphones is to communicate, and social media makes that easier than ever. What's interesting is that most social media platforms have minimum age requirements, suggesting kids are falsifying their age to get online sooner and more often.
Well, there you have it. All the facts and figures you could possibly want about smartphones. What did we learn? For one, we learned that smartphones are more popular than ever and that we use them a lot.
Both of these trends are likely to continue into the near future, but beyond that, who knows? The world has changed so much in the past ten years, it's impossible to imagine what it might look like in another ten.
Smartphone Use Around the World To get started, here are some general stats about smartphones around the world: 1. There Are Currently 4 Billion Smartphone Users in the World As of writing, more than four billion people in the world have a smartphone. Check out this graph using data from Statista : As you can see, the number of smartphones in the world has more than quadrupled since South Korea Leads the World in Smartphone Ownership According to a study from Pew , not only does every single South Korean have a cellphone of some sort, but 95 percent of the population has a smartphone, which is the highest penetration rate in the world.
Let's take a look at the complete list provided in the study: South Korea — 95 percent Israel — 88 percent Netherlands — 87 percent Sweden — 86 percent Australia — 81 percent US — 81 percent Spain — 80 percent Germany — 78 percent UK — 76 percent France — 75 percent Italy — 71 percent Argentina — 68 percent Japan — 66 percent Canada — 66 percent Hungary — 64 percent Poland — 63 percent Russia — 59 percent Greece — 59 percent The United States is tied for fifth with Australia when it comes to smartphone penetration rates.
Take a look at some of these numbers: What makes penetration rates in the US higher than those in, say the UK, is that more of the older population has a smartphone.
