The pie charts illustrate the comparison in percentages of the devices used by Canadian citizens in the 18-25 age category, in two years: 2009 and 2019.
Overall, the rate of most of the devices changes in the two years. Specifilcally, in 2009 conventional television was the major used device, while in 2019 was the flat-screen TV. On the contrary, the former became the least adopted device in 2019, while this position was held by tablets in 2009.
In 2009, young Canadians employed mainly conventional televisions (34%). However, this rate drastically dropped to 4% in 2019, representing the least used device in that year, as these devices were substituted by flat-screen TVs. Contrarily to their ancestors – i.e., conventional TVs -, the rates of flat-screen TVs climbed from 2009 to 2019, 8% and 27%, respectively, becoming the most used devices in the last year. The least used devices in 2009 were tablets with 5%, but this value improved to 19% in 2019.
The other devices used by Canadian citizens were mobile phones with a percentage that rose from 15% in 2009, to 26% in 2019, becoming the second-used device in that year. Finally, laptops and desktop computers, which rates were 20% and 18% in 2009, respectively, were fewer adopted by Canadians in 2019, with a percentage of 12% for both.
