Three Cellphone Features Survey Respondents Are Receptive to

All mobile phones have a number of features in common, now manufacturers as well try to differentiate their own products by implementing additional functions to make them more attractive to consumers. Yet not all features are created equal. Actually, some users might even be willing to pay for selected features. A recent In-Stat survey identified GPS, digital cameras, and memory card slots as three features that cellphone users are interested in and might pay for when purchasing their then phone.

"To boot to particular features, our survey indicates bar phones with touchscreens continue their dominance in the wireless market as the form factor of choice," says Greg Potter, Technology Analyst. "Interest in integration with other devices is as well on the rise, with survey respondents indicating they would like to integrate their phone with their car or other devices and to use their phone as a mobile hotspot."
