“Boss, Phone aisa dikhoyo jo apni personality say milta hoon”, I heard voice answering the question of the salesman “Sir what kind of phone do you want?” Isn’t a mobile phone a phone to call, to send text messages. No it isn’t so it seems. I remember sometime back when my niece wanted a mobile phone, which she was not allowed to carry to school, we offered her the basic Nokia we had, “Aisa phone se acha to cellphone na hona hai“, she had remarked. So what does a phone say about you?
New research,commissioned by TalkTalk Mobile, surveyed 2,000 owners of the three major smartphone brands, claims
iPhone owners are vainer and spend more on clothes and grooming than those who have BlackBerrys and Android phones, .
BlackBerry owners earn the most and are more likely to have long-term relationships,
While people with Android handsets have the best manners and are handy in the kitchen.
