If you just purchased a new phone, there is a good chance that taking a photo is the first thing you used the handset for. New research of techARC Digital India Granular Insights & Trends (DIGIT), every day among Indian smartphone users, there is 43 percent of them take photos with their handsets at least one time.

This report also states that phone users in India are really interested in capturing many moments that happens around them in daily life. The techARC DIGIT report notes that females are generally taking more pictures in comparison with males. “As per the findings, 50 percent of the females take a picture with their smartphones daily, while in males the percentage is 42 percent,” it reveals.

Another key highlight of the report is that people tend to take even more photos with smartphones in the high-end segment. “As the camera quality is relatively better in smartphones as a user moves to a premium range of the smartphones, it results in frequent usage of the camera by them.”
