By 2025, it is forecast that almost 87 percent of all mobile users in the United States will own a smartphone, an increase from the 27 percent of mobile users in 2010.

    Smartphone end user sales

    In the United States alone, sales of smartphones were projected to be worth around 73 billion U.S. dollars in 2021, an increase from 18 billion dollars in 2010. Global sales of smartphones are expected to increase from 2020 to 2021 in every major region, as the market starts to recover from the initial impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

    Description

    The S3 dataset contains the behavior (sensors, statistics of applications, and voice) of 21 volunteers interacting with their smartphones for more than 60 days. The type of users is diverse, males and females in the age range from 18 until 70 have been considered in the dataset generation. The wide range of age is a key aspect, due to the impact of age in terms of smartphone usage. To generate the dataset the volunteers installed a prototype of the smartphone application in on their Android mobile phones.
    All attributes of the different kinds of data are writed in a vector. The dataset contains the fellow vectors:
    Sensors:
    This type of vector contains data belonging to smartphone sensors (accelerometer and gyroscope) that has been acquired in a given windows of time. Each vector is obtained every 20 seconds, and the monitored features are:- Average of accelerometer and gyroscope values.- Maximum and minimum of accelerometer and gyroscope values.- Variance of accelerometer and gyroscope values.- Peak-to-peak (max-min) of X, Y, Z coordinates.- Magnitude for gyroscope and accelerometer.

    Statistics:
    These vectors contain data about the different applications used by the user recently. Each vector of statistics is calculated every 60 seconds and contains : - Foreground application counters (number of different and total apps) for the last minute and the last day.- Most common app ID and the number of usages in the last minute and the last day. - ID of the currently active app. - ID of the last active app prior to the current one.- ID of the application most frequently utilized prior to the current application. - Bytes transmitted and received through the network interfaces.

    Voice:
    This kind of vector is generated when the microphone is active in a call o voice note. The speaker vector is an embedding, extracted from the audio, and it contains information about the user's identity. This vector, is usually named "x-vector" in the Speaker Recognition field, and it is calculated following the steps detailed in "egs/sitw/v2" for the Kaldi library, with the models available for the extraction of the embedding.


    A summary of the details of the collected database.
    - Users: 21 - Sensors vectors: 417.128 - Statistics app's usage vectors: 151.034 - Speaker vectors: 2.720 - Call recordings: 629 - Voice messages: 2.091

However, analyzing the full data set allows you to conduct more in-depth data explorations and gain meaningful insights beyond the points presented here.What is the actual number of people who use the internet?(Real-world behavior makes this difficult to measure from industry reports, since people might have access to the internet through school, friends, internet cafés, public Wifi, etc.)For internet users: What do people mostly use the internet for?For non-internet users: Why not use the internet?How many people use smartphones?Do people with smartphones use the internet from just Wifi? Or just cellular service?How many people think that they don’t use the internet, but still use Facebook or WhatsApp?How many people have heard of Wikipedia? What do they use it for? How often?If they have heard of Wikipedia, but aren’t using it, why not?Compared to previous phone surveys in other countries, the 2017 Iraq phone survey presented new questions.What are people’s awareness of other major internet brands in comparison to Wikipedia?Can people find online content in their preferred language?How does data cost impact internet use?

    Description

    Digitally semi-literate means those people who face challenges in digital enablement and are not too familiar with using smartphones for text message communication. Any progress to reduce the difficulty of their smartphone usage can help these people. These people are over one billion worldwide. The dataset contains text messages in English (some of these are translations of local text messages) from semi-literate Indian users. The dataset has been derived from face to face surveys primarily. Only 10% by online surveys since these people are not comfortable in doing online surveys.

    Description

    This dataset contains transcribed fieldnotes from a “methodological assemblage” and technological prototype connecting autoethnography to the practices of self-research in personal science. As an experimental process of personal data gathering, the author used a low-tech device for the active registration of events and their perception, in a case study on disengaging from his smartphone.

    The dataset contains 267 data points (timestamp and intensity/duration of perceived events) with alternative classification and subclassification categories through thematic analysis, as well as 112 "on spot" fieldnotes and 112 related retrospective interpretation notes (with corresponding references where indicated) from a focused autoethnography intervention, tracking the authors' experience of living without constant access to a smartphone for a month (during May 2021).

    For more info on the process and the main results of this personal experiment, here's the derived publication: Senabre Hidalgo, E., & Greshake Tzovaras, B. (2023). “One button in my pocket instead of the smartphone”: A methodological assemblage connecting self-research and autoethnography in a digital disengagement study. Methodological Innovations. https://doi.org/10.1177/20597991231161093

    As described in the paper, this dataset contains a classification of events based on two complementary approaches:

    Initial categories (May 2021): Positive - Negative - Reflection

    Retrospective categories and subcategories (November 2021):

    Response to habit:

    Basic impulse: looking for smartphone in pocket / “If I had it now…”

    Abstinence reaction: attempts to reconnect to “the cloud”

    Fear of missing out (FOMO) after long periods of time

    Disruption in basic routine: perception of altered habits

    Social context:

    Feelings of embarrassment: in relation to others due to feature phone

    Observing others: people using smartphones around me

    Meta level: how to share process afterwards (in community, academically)

    User experience (UX) practicalities:

    Moving around solo: orientation when commuting without GPS

    Parasitic use of other smartphones (in case of urgent need)

    Capturing things on the spot (pictures, information, feelings)

    Local stored culture (music and reading away from screens)

    Communication problems: dysfunctions in everyday coordination

    Reconnection need: whenever ending up using the smartphone again

    Self-reinforcing / awareness:

    Succeeding in intended detox: satisfaction for achievement

    Full attention to moment / stimulus: mindfulness and concentration

    Relevant changes in routine: positive reinforcement by new habit

Description

The number of smartphone users in the United States was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2029 by in total 17.4 million users (+5.61 percent). After the fifteenth consecutive increasing year, the smartphone user base is estimated to reach 327.54 million users and therefore a new peak in 2029. Notably, the number of smartphone users of was continuously increasing over the past years.Smartphone users here are limited to internet users of any age using a smartphone. The shown figures have been derived from survey data that has been processed to estimate missing demographics.The shown data are an excerpt of Statista's Key Market Indicators (KMI). The KMI are a collection of primary and secondary indicators on the macro-economic, demographic and technological environment in up to 150 countries and regions worldwide. All indicators are sourced from international and national statistical offices, trade associations and the trade press and they are processed to generate comparable data sets (see supplementary notes under details for more information).Find more key insights for the number of smartphone users in countries like Mexico and Canada.
