..What is a SIM only plan?

A Bundle Data Minutes and TextA Bundle Data Minutes and Text


It’s where you get no actual phone.  You get only A SIM card that has a network price plan that contains a bundle of Texts, Minutes and Data that you pay for monthly.



You then insert it into an existing unlocked phone or a new one you've bought. As you don’t pay for any phone, the monthly cost of the plan works out much cheaper compared to a pay monthly handset contract.

What and who is considered a heavy phone user?

Up to 6-8 hours of SmartPhone usage (on screen time, talk time, etc) is considered heavy usage.

EAT DATA


Heavy users, use the Smartphone in an intensive way, that is, above average, how does this relate to the generations and how much data they use?  They generally represent less than a third of Mobile Phone users.


Smartphone for heavy usage


Data needs and requirements is still the bottom line for Heavy Users or it could be all about screen-time on the phone on a daily bases across the generations and then we can see if there is a link between Data usage and the generations.


Ok no one is shocked that millennials seem to have the most screen-time on the Mobile, while

Boomers have the least with 2.6 hours of screen-time on the Mobile.

Gen X with 3.1 hours and

3.8 hours a day, for millennials

Datagygabytes


This means millennials spend around 58 days each year on their phones; Gen X about 46 days and boomers spend 39 days as of Nov 2020.



So millennials and Gen X seem to be leading when it comes to heavy Data needs, to support and mirror their daily Mobile activity.

However, there is a new contender to the throne of the biggest Heavy users of Data the world has ever seen….

  • Generation Z or iGen: Born 1997–2010.
  • Millennial Generation or Generation Y: Born 1981–1996.
  • Generation X: Born 1965–1980.
  • Baby Boom Generation: Born 1946–1964.
  • The Silent Generation: Born 1928–1945.
  • The Greatest Generation (GI Generation): Born 1901–1924.
