I don't know from what day, a topic suddenly appeared on the Internet: why are young people reluctant to change their mobile phones? The topic once rushed to the second place in the hot search list, becoming something that even ordinary consumers in addition to the circle are discussing in a hot way.
In fact, when I first saw this question, I still thought about it in my heart, is its answer really just because of poverty? If I am not poor, can my new mobile phone really impress me and make me willing to pay for it without hesitation?
It is true that the new smartphones now do have updated technology, stronger performance, more personalized appearance, and more high-end texture, but in the development of these years, everyone should have been surprised by these things, right? Perhaps in the eyes of some people, these things can indeed attract him, but if you compare the current mobile phone circle with the mobile phone circle of ten years ago, do you still feel that the current mobile phone is more attractive than the mobile phone at that stage?
The answer is, no doubt, certainly not. I think at the beginning, just in the appearance of the mobile phone, Nokia can play a thousand tricks for everyone; Apple's iPhone came out, directly making the keyboard straight board machine lonely; the openness of the Android system, so that Xiaomi, Meizu, Huawei, OPPO, vivo and other manufacturers bloom, although the bottom is the same, but they all have completely different ways to play.
If you have not experienced the original mobile phone circle, there will definitely be no waves in your heart, but everyone who has experienced the original will definitely understand the feeling I said.
Look at it now? Snapdragon 8 Gen1, digging full screen, fingerprint recognition under the screen, rear triple camera, 100 watts fast charging, NFC, wireless charging, just by virtue of these configurations, we can call out more than one model, they in addition to having different colors of the back cover, different brands of LOGO, different experience of the system, how much difference?
When more and more such similar products appear on the market, do you think it will still be attractive? Can it still make you pay for it without hesitation?
If you really ask "why young people are reluctant to change mobile phones", insist on saying an answer, [the lack of attractiveness of contemporary new mobile phones] should be counted as one.
However, to investigate its roots, it is still inseparable from one word: poor.
In fact, the above analysis may just be an excuse for poverty, imagine if you really don't care about funds, you can buy and buy at will, a normal life, like to contact new things of young people, really will not be interested in the newly released products? Do you really not want to buy it and play it in the first place? At least for me, I'm willing.
If I am really not poor, I will continue to consume the brands I like, if I am not poor, I do not need to struggle with whether the performance of such a new product is excessive, whether its new features are my needs, directly interrupt the entanglement, and buy it.
It is also true that according to Gartner's statistics some time ago, in the global smartphone sales list in 2021, the models 1 to 10 are Samsung Galaxy A12, iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 11, Redmi 9A, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Pro and Samsung Galaxy A02.
If you look at the price segment, there is basically a clear polarization state, the iPhone series models are high-end representatives, this can be on the list without saying, after all, the product does have advantages. The rest are two Samsung Galaxy A series, and the only domestic mobile phone - Redmi 9A.
This product must not be unfamiliar to everyone, in fact, this is an entry-level smartphone released by Redmi in July 2020, when the initial price was 599 yuan. When it was first released, in fact, everyone's attention to it was not particularly high, but from the statistical results, this product was exactly the best selling.
Even the Samsung Galaxy A12 and A02 next door are also very beginner-minded and extremely inexpensive products, and the emergence of this list will feel very incredible?
What this points out is that, at least from the perspective of the global market, there are still many people who have a fairly high demand for this kind of entry-level, low-priced product. Do these people really not want to experience high-performance, well-designed, high-quality smartphones? Of course not, they are simply limited by funds that cannot be freely disposed of.
So in my case, there is only one answer to "why young people don't want to change their mobile phones", that is, poor, is this still necessary to ask?
