Rating of countries whose citizens are most dependent on smartphones
Recently, researchers at McGill University in Canada published a study of nearly 35,000 people using smartphones in 24 countries between 2014 and 2020. Among them, Chinese users rank first in terms of mobile phone addiction.
The research paper was published in the journal Computers in Human Behavior. Based on published research results, the top three are China, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia. Canada is ranked seventh, Japan is 15th, the US is 18th, and Germany is 24th. Only two countries from Africa are on the list of countries whose citizens are most dependent on smartphones. Egypt is in 9th place, while Nigeria is in 20th place.
According to the article, the subjects of this study are young people with an average age of 28.8 years. In addition, 60% of study participants are women. From 2014 to 2020, the problem of smartphone users around the world has become more and more serious, and this trend will definitely not end anytime soon.
The researchers say one possible explanation for differences in scores across countries is social norms and cultural expectations. Many of these users need motivation through their smartphones. In fact, many of them have their businesses and livelihoods tied to their smartphones.
All subway passengers in a particular country read books and newspapers, while most people on the subway in China look at their mobile phones. Later it turned out that the country where passengers read newspapers is only because the mobile network in the subway is not available. However, in the same region, after the commercialization of 5G, the situation is no different from China.
This list shows that Asians are more addicted to smartphones, followed by Europeans.

There is almost no such thing in any smartphone with a price of up to $500. Vivo S17 Pro got a TV camera

Vivo has introduced a mid-range smartphone S17 Pro, which stands out from the background of most similar devices and even many more expensive ones with the presence of a camera.
Here it’s a 12-megapixel Sony IMX663 sensor with only 2x zoom, but it’s better than nothing. Now even many base models of flagships are completely devoid of a camera, and here we are talking about a phone with a price of $435.
The main camera here relies on a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766V sensor, and there is also an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. The smartphone is also equipped with a large 120Hz 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2800 x 1260 pixels and a brightness of up to 1300 cd/m2 and PWM with a frequency of 2160 Hz.
The heart is the pre-top SoC Dimensity 8200, there are also 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 256 or 512 GB of flash memory. Of the rest, a 4600 mAh battery with 80-watt charging, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 6 and a thickness of 7.46 mm with a weight of 188 g can be noted.

All the main parameters of the Realme C53 smartphone have appeared on the Web, which is very similar to the back of the iPhone Pro.

The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will grow, and the iPhone 17 and 17 Plus will finally get 120Hz screens. This is a reliable source

iPhone Pro smartphones in the next year’s lineup will grow strongly, and the younger iPhone 17 will finally get 120Hz screens.
Ross Young, an industry analyst and founder of research companies Display Supply Chain Consultants and DisplaySearch, confirmed his own data that the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will be larger than their predecessors. The former will receive a 6.27-inch display, while the latter will have a 6.86-inch panel. Probably Apple will refer to them as 6.3 and 6.9 inches respectively.
The screens will be 120Hz and still have the same Dynamic Island cutout. The iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models will retain the size of their predecessors and 60Hz screens.
In the iPhone 17 line, older models will receive the same panels as the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max, but instead of the Dynamic Island cutout, they will only have a cutout for the front camera, and the Face ID module will be placed completely under the screen. But the iPhone 17 and 17 Plus models will retain Dynamic Island, but will finally get 120-Hz panels.
Through his work, Young has access to information related to the screens, so he often knows more than ordinary insiders. In particular, he talked about 120 Hz screens in the iPhone 12 Pro and 60 Hz screens in the younger devices of the line.
