However, in 2014, smartphone ownership among boys continued to climb, reaching 250, while girls owned 225 smartphones. In 2015, ownership among boys rose to 290, while girls hit a slightly higher peak of nearly 300.

Notably, 2012 recorded the lowest number of smartphone owners for both boys and girls, while 2019 saw the highest figures, with both genders approaching 300.
