Mobile internet services call for ever more smartphone use
PEOPLE'S RELIANCE ON SMARTPHONES is increasing. Data from German company Statista show that Brazilians, for instance, who are the heaviest users, spend five hours on their smartphones every day on average. Chinese users come second, spending on average three hours a day on their phones. Southern Metropolis Daily comments:
People's reliance on smartphones is due to the convenience they offer users. In China, with a smartphone in hand, a user can unlock a shared bicycle by the roadside or pay the fare to use a bus, buy food in supermarkets, and send a photo or video greeting to a family member or friend, no matter how far away he or she is.
And with the development of journals, audio and video apps, we can now even turn our smartphones into electronic journals, TV sets, as well as radio receivers. Those wanting to play games can also do that on their smartphones.
