Android, iPhone Not moneyed its People
LONDON - Android smart phone turned out to be an alternative for people who can not afford to buy the iPhone. At least this conclusion drawn from research results MyPhoneDeals site.
Although Android smartphone sales continue to rise and occupy the second position under Nokia, but nearly one-third admitted Android users are still expecting afford to buy the iPhone.
"These data suggest that many users who expect to have the Android, but they also do not yet have an iPhone. We think that one problem is price," said a spokesman MyPhoneDeals, as quoted by PC Pro, on Friday (12/11/2010).
According to them, only approximately seven percent of iPhone users who plan to switch to Android handsets. The reluctance of fans to have a Android smartphone because they are not familiar with Android as a brand.
Of all respondents who were involved, only approximately 16 percent who claim to want to have a smartphone based on Android.
"Android still must face the challenge to build a 'brand image' among consumers, especially the women. For example, many consumers who want a HTC Desire HD, but most of them do not know if the phones based on Android," said the MyPhoneDeals.
It seems, continued their biggest problem is the Android-based smartphone is always 'romp' with the iPhone. As if Android is just imitators.
"Any what is done by the iPhone, their competitors would follow. This is a little more to build the iPhone's own image, as an innovative product," he said.
