Overall
, a mobile phone was far more popular than a fixed phone.
Moreover
, throughout almost all the years the biggest
number
of users was in the UK in both graphs. Despite
this
, the
number
of subscriptions in the UK for mobile phones after a modest rise in 2005 remained flat during the period (approximately 120000 individuals).
In contrast
, between 2005 and 2013 the
number
in Uruguay witnessed a surge from about 40000 to 170000 users. In 2009 the
number
in
this
country secured first place. A graph of India had a similar tendency, soaring in 2010 and hitting around 80000 people in 2014.
On the other hand
,
although
the
number
of fixed telephone subscriptions in the UK was the largest throughout the years, it decreased steadily from approximately 60000 to 53000 individuals. Meanwhile, the
