What Men and Women Want From a New Phone [Chart]

Posted March 9, 2014 at 6:28pm by
A Nielsen survey looks at the key features of mobile phones that appeal to both men and women, which aren't always the same.

Globally, while more men gravitate toward tech-savvy mobile phone attributes like operating system (48% men vs. 41% women), battery life (48% vs. 44%), screen size (38% vs. 34%) and processor speed (41% vs. 31%) when shopping for a new device, more women are influenced by price (72% women vs. 67% men), service contract terms (27% vs. 25%) and camera capability (32% vs. 30%).

So the girls care more about $, design and camera. Seemed pretty obvious without a survey.

I'm a guy and I prefer a phone getting credit like awards and surpasses anyone else in anything, even if it means how less megapixels are for overall a great picture.
