Study: 1 Out Of 8 People Suffer Anxiety When Cell Phone Battery Is Low

MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- The stress gets high when the battery goes low. According to a new One Poll  survey, one in eight Americans suffers anxiety from a low phone battery.

In fact, more than half said battery drain is a nightmare. And nearly half of respondents said losing their phone is worse than misplacing a credit card, car keys, or even a wedding ring.

The survey interviewed 2,000 smartphone users. The survey also revealed 6 out of 10 people couldn't handle being separated from their phones for a day.

Three out of ten people also stated that they never leave the house without their phones and solely rely on it for GPS or checking the weather.
