Study: Smartphones people need not to call


Smartphones News, Demand for smart phones is increasing worldwide at an alarming rate – it is an obvious fact. They have even bought real blondes, not created by nature to interact with such a complex technology. So why are these devices that are about to displace the market with mobile phones? To make calls and write SMS-messages? As it turned out, not: according to a recent study in smartphones are most often used is the secondary function.

Under the minor features in this case means all but the calls and messages – games, online surfing, photography, yes everything, even the navigation! The study conducted Western telecom operator O2. He found that the average owner of a modern communicator uses his more than two hours a day. Approximately 25 minutes away on his Web browsing. Then there are the social media, music and games, which spent 17.5, 15.5 and 14.5 minutes respectively. Phone calls are not honorable fifth place with a score of only 12 minutes. MobileDevice notes that the rating is not limited to only five positions, and voice communication, fortunately, is not the last. After them followed the order of e-mails, text messages, watching online TV shows and movies and pictures with the camera.

54% of surveyed smartphone users said they use it also as an alarm clock, but it is clear that this device works as a very short time. We also add that for about half of those who use the communicators, they are also substitutes for wristwatches. Average duration of calls decreased by 50% since 2005 – people were really less to communicate with each other by voice, almost totally going online. And this, in fact, scary.
