Power Smartphone Ratings

A couple times a year, JD Power and Associates ranks smartphones. The devices are among a number of consumer products they rank. For the 9th consecutive time, Apple leads the pack…the iPhone scored 855 out of 1000, up 6 from last time. Nokia edged out Samsung by 2 points for 2nd place with 795. HTC and Motorola were in hot pursuit at 792 and 790. The average smartphone score was 796. The new Blackberry 10 may help Blackberry raise their score, and they need it…they were in the cellar at 732. Consumers rated performance as most important, followed by design, then features.
