Mobile phones have become very popular, with 93% of UK adults owning one in 2016. Smartphones now allow people to do more than just communicate, providing access to music, games, social media, browsing and videos. Apple appears to dominate the youth market, with surveys showing most young people owning iPhones. Apple's sales figures significantly outperform Samsung's over several years. However, a visit to a college found that while most students had iPhones, especially girls who cited taking selfies, some students preferred other brands like HTC that offered different features than Apple and Samsung. Recent issues with Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 catching fire led to news coverage and public concern about the safety of that phone model.

the most desired productwithin this generation, Apple has been dominating the
mobile phone market for quite some time as you can see, from all the way back
to 2010 and 2016 as shown by our research. This is because, most people we
asked, stated which phone they had, predominately iPhones. Other phones were
also mentioned. Their sale figures beat Samsung’s figures by a drastic amount
in different years.

On-Screen:But what do the general public, specifically young people, think of
Apple and Samsung's reputation? For this, we decided to visit Solihull Sixth
Form College and see for ourselves.
Narration (Third BackgroundFootage):A majority of people are shown to
have an iPhone equally between male and females. But more girls did say they
had iPhones and we can only assume it’s for taking selfies and posting pictures
on a variety of social media and boys that have it as a fashion product. Others
that don’thave an iPhone or Samsung, like a HTC, shows there are still things
that other phones offer that these don’t
