Some personal observations about why smartphone sales are rocketing. We Indians love to shop, we don’t buy a house, we buy a car, we don’t buy a car, we buy a two-wheeler
We don’t buy a bike, we buy domestic appliances TV being a major growth area. But smartphones are unique 1/2
buying a smartphone brings great satisfaction & in some cases improvement in quality of life , opens up new areas of work/business. And phones these days offer incredible value for money so buyers don’t feel guilty putting money down. No wonder it is beating the economic downturn
Similar trends can be observed in clothing and food industry
