The boss of Samsung Mobile in the UK has revealed he didn't have his daughter have a mobile phone until she was 11 years old. James Kitto said he believed under 11 was too young for his child to have access to a device like the ones he sells.
Speaking to the BBC Today programme, Mr Kitto said: "I personally wouldn't have given her one early, but it is a parental decision as to when you should get your child a phone," said James Kitto.
He added: "What is important here is that, whoever is using a smartphone, of whatever age, is safe when they are surfing and browsing the internet."
