Phablets - statistics & facts
A phablet is a hybrid of a smartphone and a tablet. The goal of the industry was to offer a device that had the portability and functionality of a smartphone and the tablet size screen experience. Customers that were looking for better performance, larger displays, and better cameras on their devices, often turned to phablets. With regards to dimensions, the screen size of a phablet was originally classified as between five and 6.9 inches, with the term phablet most used between 2012 and 2014. However, as the average smartphone size increased, the term has become less widespread.
