For Swedish young people, digital devices, such as the Internet and mobile phones, top the list of things they cannot live without, according to research and consulting firm Kairos Future.
Computers top the list among Swedes ages 16 to 25-years-old, while Internet and mobile phone follow. Among those 24 to 45-years old, TV is on the top of the list, with mobile phones and fixed phones on the second and the third. For those between ages 46 and 65, fixed phones, cars and radios top three things they cannot live without.
Computers, the Internet and mobile phones are ranked higher among younger generations – they are the top three listed among those aged 16 to 25, on the top five for those 26 to 45 and are out of the top five among people aged 46 to 65.
Traditional media and devices, such as a landline phone, newspaper and magazines, are ranked higher by elder generations – people aged between 46 and 65 even choose a fixed phone as the first thing they cannot live without.
TV is the only medium on the top-four list across age groups, Kairos Future reported.
