Half of these mobile devices are smartphones, which means some 2.5 billion smartphones are in use worldwide.

On the other hand, only a slightly more than half of the world is having access to the Internet, a report by Hootsuite and We Are Social reads. Of those who have Internet, 3 billion users turn to their mobile devices to use social media channels.
