Description
Summary:This study aims to investigate the significance of the iPhone among Millennials in Singapore. I attempt to study the interaction between individuals and their iPhones and in particular the kinds of meanings and values that individuals place upon the iPhone, which affected their justifications in the purchase of the iPhone. I found the influence of personal networks to be a key factor in providing information for respondents, leading to eventual ownership of the iPhone, and various reasoning for iPhone purchases by young Singaporeans to be determinative of their consumer behaviour.
