Read the following passage, then choose the best answer to each question.

Electronic devices play a major role in modern life. They are typically made from materials like plastic, aluminium, and copper, which are lightweight and durable. Wireless music players let people enjoy music without cables. Over 30 million wireless music players were sold in 2022. By 2023, over 200 million smartwatches were sold worldwide. A 3D printer can create objects from plastic or aluminium. A camcorder is great for recording videos, and the smartphone with its self-portrait feature is wonderful.

Each electronic device serves particular purposes, from entertainment to daily tasks, but they also have some disadvantages. For example, a smartwatch is a portable and stylish device that tracks your fitness, displays notifications, and shows the time but it needs charging every 1-2 days. An e-reader, with its touchscreen, allows users to carry thousands of books. It is lighter than a paperback, but some people miss the feel of real books. For home cleaning, a robotic vacuum cleaner can remove dirt by sucking it up. These devices save an average of 90 minutes per week, but prices can reach $500. Virtual reality systems provide immersive experiences for gaming and education, but using them for more than 30 minutes can cause eye strain.

Wireless music players sold over 200 million units worldwide in 2022.

The materials which are used in making electronic devices are known for being both lightweight and resistant.

Robot vacuum cleaners offer a cost-effective solution for home cleaning.

Virtual reality systems may negatively affect eye health after more than half an hour of use.

Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a function of a smartwatch?

What is the main idea of the passage?
