About This Report
In 2023, Southeast Asia will remain a growth leader in digital users. Paradoxically, while its smartphone adoption will soon approach 90% among internet users, only slightly more than 60% of the population will be internet users this year.

Key Question: How does Southeast Asia stack up against other regions in digital adoption?

KEY STAT: In 2023, 88.9% of internet users in Southeast Asia will also be smartphone users—a higher rate than those in more economically advanced regions like North America and Western Europe.
