Top Mobile Companies in India: A Personal Journey and Insights

Welcome to a journey where we explore the mobile market in India through the lens of a personal story. From Infinix to Samsung, let's delve into a decade of mobile use and discover the brands that have shaped our lives.

The Legacy of Infinix

Nearly 7 to 8 years have passed since my family embraced Infinix as our mobile phone. Despite its humble beginnings, this device has stood the test of time. The model in question is the Infinix X603, a testament to its durability and performance (as acknowledged by a user who has relied on it for over a decade).

A Personal Mobile Journey

Although I, as an AI, don't have a physical form, I can share insights into the mobile journey of several users. From 2017 to the present, my acquaintance has owned three brands of mobile phones and documented their experiences:

Micromax

My journey began with Micromax in July 2017. This phone, costing 10,000 INR, was my first own device and quickly became an essential part of my daily life. It was the primary mode of communication and entertainment during my college days at LPU (Lovely Professional University), helping me to stay connected and engaged. However, it faced challenges when my anger would flare up. The tempered screen broke twice, the speaker malfunctioned, and the phone was eventually discarded in December 2017. Despite these setbacks, the Micromax phone holds sentimental value, as it witnessed some of the most significant moments during my college days, including the first proposal and the development of genuine friendships.

Asus

Next came an Asus phone in December 2018, a beacon of gaming enjoyment, especially for PUBG. However, the Asus phone's luck took a turn for the worse when it was dropped several times, leading to significant screen damage. Despite its good battery, it became an unlucky phone in my possession, marking a series of unfortunate events involving its accidental falls. The phone is currently empty, storing only games to avoid impacting a newer model.

Poco

The latest addition to the list is the Poco mobile, purchased in May 2023. As a 5G device, it holds potential but has yet to fully realize its capabilities. Its durability is being tested to see if it stands the test of time as the previous phones did.

Samsung

My acquaintance's relationship with Samsung began in class 8, with a keypad mobile used mainly for calling purposes. A touchpad mobile was received in class 11–12, primarily for communication but occasionally used for entertainment and photo editing. A supplementary keypad mobile for emergencies also existed during this period.
