Everything indicates that the segment of smartphones will continue to rise in 2022. At least that's what the estimates of the coupon portal Couponation for discounts point to. According to the German multinational, the average purchase for the sector this year will be 1.430 billion sets , a growth of 3.62% compared to the average sales recorded in 2021.
Last year, even with the impact of the pandemic on consumers' pockets, the company reveals that an average of 1,380 billion smartphones were sold at retail.

In 2021, the country was among the five with the highest number of active smartphones, according to a survey by consulting firm Newzoo. The number of hours that Brazilians consume content on their smartphones also rose by 6% last year, according to the survey.
