Australian mobile usage is very high, with over half the population using smartphones and nearly 20% using tablets. Mobile devices have become an integral part of everyday life for Australians, who use their phones for a variety of tasks like taking photos, browsing the web, searching for information, emailing, and using apps. Australians also frequently use their mobile devices for short bursts of activity throughout the day and often have their phones with them while doing other activities like watching television or using another device.
