Finder has announced new data which shows two-in-five Australian children under 12 have a mobile phone and five per cent of children under five have their own smartphone.

The study doesn't account for special circumstances where children need a phone for safety or personal reasons.

Oliver Peterson was shocked to find so many children under five have their own smartphones.
