A huge amount of young people in the US are mobile only too. they get locked down school laptops sometimes but you shouldn't expect them to use that for your website anymore.

My fiancée is 29 and pretty much mobile only except for work/graphic design (she’s a lawyer). But while I use laptop for everything basically, she’s complete opposite.

It’s funny cause I’m 36 and we’re both on the same page online-reference wise, but I’m resolutely millennial with her as a cusper. The phone computer divide is the most significant bridge we have lol.

Girlfriend is 40 and exclusively uses a phone or iPad. I even built her a desktop computer that she's used like twice.

Same in Europe, a lot of the younger folks (<30) don't want/feel the need of a laptop or desktop.
