Indian consumers now prefer ease-of-use (96 percent), affordability (89 percent), and innovative design aesthetics (88 percent) from smartphones manufacturers who have forayed into launching tech-lifestyle brands and products, a report showed on Thursday.

Of these, the smartphone brands that enjoy a strong brand salience amongst their users, are winning big on the consumer trust,” said Prabhu Ram, Head-Industry Intelligence Group (IIG), CMR. As per the findings, Realme enjoys the highest brand trust score of 55 percent while Samsung was placed second with 51 percent and Apple third with 49 percent.

As an early driver of smart tech products, Xiaomi leads in brand awareness and usage in the country, the report showed. “The high brand affinity and brand trust that some smartphone brands enjoy amongst consumers is translating into increased adoption of new consumer tech products from them,” added Satya Sundar Mohanty, Head-Industry Consulting Group (ICG), CMR.
