There are over 6.8 BILLION mobile phones in the world. Yay! Everyone in the world has mobile tech!
Uh…not quite. (Zuckerberg is working on it though!)
Not everyone in the world has ( or wants?) access to mobile tech, but there’s quite a few people who do. Some even many times over.
Which country you think has the most mobile phones?
If you’re thinking it’s mostly dictated by, well, which country has the most people, you’d be about.. 63.2% right ( don’t try and calculate that, it’s a fakestimated percentage!)
Here is the list, ranked country by country of mobile phones ownership around the world.
1. China 1,206,553,000
