Global diffusion of cheap smartphones leading to market saturation

After the iPhone moment in 2007, it became clear around 2013-2014 that the diffusion of smartphones would spread worldwide, leading to a proliferation of cheap devices each year. Moore's law meant more transistors per dollar, but it didn't translate into faster phones for most people; instead, it meant their first smartphone.
