Cellphone adoption in the US began to rise steadily in the early 1990s. Then in the late 2000s, smartphones began their ascent with the introduction of the iPhone in 2007. By 2023, smartphone adoption neared 90%, indicating the deep integration of these devices into daily life, driven by their multifunctional capabilities encompassing communication, internet access, and numerous applications.
