The figures are significant since in 2011 the smartphone figure was 35 percent and the tablet figure was almost non-existent.
Breaking down the smartphone number further, we have 86 percent ownership for the 18-29 age group, and 83 percent for those in the age 30-49 range.
With the increase in tablet and smartphone ownership has come a decline in desktop and laptop ownership. 78 percent of adults under 30 own a desktop or laptop, down from 88 percent in 2010. In total, 73% of U.S. adults own a desktop or laptop computer, down from 80 percent in 2012.
In total, mobile phone ownership is almost fully saturated, with 92 percent of American adults owning a mobile phone of some kind.
