It’s not a matter of whether you’ll misplace your phone. It’s a matter

of when and where… Which depends on where you live.

What Are the Odds?

In the U.S., people lose a smartphone

about once a year.

Phones are more often lost at night. Two-

thirds of phone loss happens between

the hours of 9 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time.

One of the top places to lose your phone

at is a bar. (Hmmm, we wonder how that

happens…)

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year (to Lose Your Phone)

More phones are lost during festivals and

celebrations. During Christmas, more

than $11 million dollars worth of phones

were lost.

During the week of Carnival (aka Mardi

Gras), more phones were lost around the

world than during your average parade-

less, bead-less week. Party-goers in

Cologne lost 30% more phones and in

Paris, 72% more phones were lost. Lookout.com
