Smartphones have changed from being a luxury novelty to a requirement in just over a decade. They've replaced many of our watches, iPods, cameras, and can function quite comfortably as both a computer and a TV. Although most of us now consider our smartphones to be an extension of ourselves, there are still a lot of things about them that we don't know. These technologies have interesting back stories and cool abilities. These 20 interesting facts about your phone will surprise you. How many people own mobile devices? There are approximately 7.8 billion people in the world, and (as of the year 2021) there are 3.8 billion smartphone users. This indicates that about 48.72% of people on the planet own a smartphone. India, China, and the USA are some of the more significant markets, and each of those nations has easily surpassed the 100 million user threshold. Ironically, though, the "untapped potential charts" show a resurgence of both China and India. India and China are among a sizable group of populous nations whose markets for smartphones have not yet been fully penetrated. There are still a lot of untapped markets that the traditional big boys like Samsung or Apple haven't really delved into. Another interesting statistic is that, even though there are 3.8 billion smartphone users worldwide, there are 5.22 billion total mobile phone users. This indicates that about 1.42 billion people still use conventional feature phones or comparable non-smartphone devices. For people in third-world nations or who are barely making ends meet, feature phones are an excellent form of communication because they are affordable. Additionally, older people prefer feature phones over smartphones and are more at ease using them. Such information contributes to the staggering 1.42 billion users. How many cell phones are sold annually? As big as it gets, the smartphone market is enormous. Sales records are measured in billions because there are about 300 million new users every year and existing users who want to upgrade.

However, the industry reached a plateau not long after passing the billion-dollar threshold in 2014. Since 2015, sales have consistently increased by less than 10%, and since 2014, they have not increased by more than 10%. The number of smartphone users in Asia?

According to the GSMA report, the region will have 3 billion mobile subscribers by 2025, or 70% of the population. This demonstrates how new and untapped the Asian market is. However, the Asian market will soon have sizeable populations comparable to those in the US and EU due to strong interest from some of the world's top tech companies and an ever-hungry populace. The fact that mobile operators in the Asian-Pacific region will invest roughly $331 billion in 5G infrastructure between 2020 and 2025 is another intriguing fact about the region. The use of smartphones from 2018 to 2021 In 2012, the number of smartphones sold worldwide surpassed the billion mark, and since then, usage has grown steadily and gradually.
