In 2023, around 77 percent of teenage boys stated that they owned either a computer or a laptop, compared with 68 percent of teenage girls. This is a slight decrease from the year before but keeps in line with the trend of the majority of teenagers (over 70 percent) owning a computer or laptop for over a decade.
