Mobile phone makers with the most users are Sharp, design choice focused on design

This was clarified by a questionnaire survey on "ease of use of mobile phones / PHS" performed by Myvoice Com. According to this survey, DoCoMo has 44.2% of top mobile phones (including PHS) companies currently in use, and the terminal makers are top with 20% of Sharp.

In addition, importance when choosing a mobile phone seems to be overwhelming with "designability" at 38%. In addition to that, there are items such as "manufacturer of mobile phones / PHSs that used to be used before" and "purchase time of mobile phones / PHSs currently in use".

Details are as follows.

Next, the manufacturer of the mobile phone · PHS currently used. Sharp is the leader with 20.2%, followed by Panasonic 14.1%, NEC 13.9%. I suppose that Sharp is strong, as it is still supplying attractive terminals to all mobile phones and PHS companies.


Purchase time of mobile phone · PHS currently in use. The number of users who purchased it over a year ago is 55.3%, and most people use it for more than one year.


As to whether or not you are accustomed to the operation of mobile phones / PHS currently in use, 28% answered "I'm used to it enough" and 55.3% answered "I'm used so well".


Manufacturer of mobile phones / PHS that I used before. NEC at the top is 15.7%, Sharp is 14.5%, and Panasonic is 13.3%. Compared with currently used manufacturers, is it that NEC separation is progressing ...?


Reason for choosing mobile phones / PHS currently in use. 37.9% of the leaders in the premier "I like the design" are far apart from 20.2% of the second place "I am accustomed to the operation of menus and functions". Perhaps it reflects the appearance of mobile phones that emphasize design in recent years.


In other words, with good design, should you issue a cell phone that is easy to operate menus and functions for all telephone companies?
