Well, that’s certainly a color scheme.
I kinda like how gross it is. More things should strive to look gross.
Yeah what ever happens to cold-to-hot colors?
Graphic design is my passion
Fuckin Iryna at it again
I love how it sais that South Africa has the highest and Egypt has the lowest screen time of Africa, while they are the only countries in Agrica with Data.
Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes…
Based on the colour, it looks like us south Africans still spend tons of time on our phones.
I mean, 8 hours just for work. If you count all screens I probably spend like 14 hours a day starring “on screens”.
Yeah, not sure how the average is less than 8 hours. That’s insane back-to-nature primitivism shit

China does have a lot of agricultural and manufacturing workers who aren’t on computers all day. And they have some pretty poor rural areas. But I’m calling bullshit on Japan’s numbers. Tokyo looks like Blade Runner at night but and the office culture is famous for long hours but no one is looking at screens? Get the fuck outta here.
Go to any major city in China and you will see thousands of people on their scooters, smoking cigarettes and playing mobile games. Chinese people are absolutely glued to their phones.
You’re talking about cities but 34% of Chinese people live in rural areas
Same with the numbers of Western Europe. Those definitely do not include office hours work screen time, I’m pretty sure they only measured leisure time screen time and excluded tv watching
And North and South America is bisexual.
Europe eats hot chip and charge they phone.
Bogan: can’t use phone if you have beers on both hands
Japan is only 3:45 hours? How? Are those salarymen working 12hrs per day in front of their computers not counted? Or is it offset by kids not allowed to use smartphones at school?
I think japan still uses a lot of paper in the administrative side of things, that could bring it down too. Still seems like a data collection issue based on how much of an outlier it is.
The average American works more hours than the average Japanese oddly enough.
I don’t think this these numbers include work at all. Because none of the articles the graphic is based on mention work at all, nor do their sources it seems. And also, the sources talk about “time spent connected to the internet”, so streaming would count, but not TV, which is also a screen. So average real screen time could be even higher.
I’d be curious what the original data was from, the link just says DataReportal.com ?
I’m very surprised that south America has much higher screen time than north America
Yeah I dont understand this. Only thing I can think is that news is more TV in the north and more phone based on south?
Wtf how is the high end 9 hours? That’s just my time at work. It doesn’t even include the commute, reading the news, and talking with friends.
Japan: the lowest screen time in Asia and Oceania (also the world)
Yeah, I’m wondering who they surveyed. Salarymen vs housewives vs retirees would have completely different answers tbh.
One also wonders how the questions asked were phrased. And how they interpreted responses of, “E, chotto . . .” and other “telling the truth would be rude” circumlocutions.
Yes, this is also true. I had a job in a Tokyo suburb going house to house surveying households (read: stay at home wives and retirees) and my god, getting them to answer questions face-to-face was like pulling teeth.
Once we anonymized the surveys however, damn were the honest lol. Especially about the foreigner (me 😂)
I think people that see these numbers as low does not realize that tons of people don’t work in front of a screen full-time, and the average would include children and the elderly
So, TV isn’t a screen according to this, right?
Japan so low because they are dead in bed before they can open their phone or what?
