The given pie charts illustrate the media people in the age group from 18 to 25 use to watch television in Europe in 2007 and 2017. Overall, whilst conventional TV was the most common choice in the earlier year, it drastically declined in popularity in 2017 and was overtaken by flat-screen TVs and mobile phones.
In 2007, there was a noticeable gap between the most common device used to watch television, conventional TV, and the rest of the given methods. Conventional TV accounted for just over a third of the total usage, roughly seven times more than the least popular device of choice in the late 2000s, that being the tablet at just 5%.
However, in 2017, the number of young European adults still choosing conventional TV to watch TV declined. By the late 2010s, usage of this method dropped to 4% out of the total. In contrast, flat-screen TV popularity grew from 8% to 27% and became the top choice for this age group, closely followed by mobile phones, whose own popularity surged from 15% to 26%. Furthermore, tablets, which were the least used device used in 2007, rose from 5% to 19%.
