- Abstract
In contemporary society, there is a growing complexity to the consumer purchase paths of mobile electronics as the market of smartphones becomes increasingly saturated. When customers face various smartphone brands, many factors are considered. Thus, this research aims to explore the relationship between product design and customer preference. By analyzing two cases, this paper would indicate that the key to a successful smartphone model is to identify the customers’ demand at the design stage. On the other hand, such a conclusion also raises new problems for smartphone manufacturers. Indeed, a product that meets all customers’ needs will help the company acquire a higher market share. But from the perspective of the smartphone designers, many factors have to be considered before they design the new smartphone model since they are also responsible for making the most revenue possible for the company. Balancing the product’s profitability with the customer’s needs is the eternal challenge that manufacturing companies and smartphone designers face. For instance, how to reduce the marginal cost in production while providing customers with new products they would like to buy? This paper will analyze two successful customer-oriented smartphone companies, Oneplus and Apple, with The Five product levels mode. Most importantly, the knowledge gained from this paper intends to assist smartphone designers and manufacturing companies in producing a product that wins high market share by meeting customers’ expectations in features while gathering profit.
