Most teens and young kids use smartphones for their basic features, not exactly consistent with the needs of those of working people or adults. For the most part, they play games, chat, listen to music and make/receive calls, but this is starting to change as kids are using them more. Many parents provide cell phones to kids as a way to stay in touch with them and for security/safety reasons, but it is becoming more popular and almost normal to see teens and young kids carrying their smartphones to school.
