Future of smartphones is smarter, longer-lasting, more personal and the realme 16 series shows why

New Delhi, Aug 10 (IANS) India’s smartphone market is changing fast. People no longer only care about low prices or how many phones are sold. Instead, they want more value from their devices. Young buyers want features that used to be available only in expensive phones.

A recent study shows that users now look for a mix of AI functions, good cameras, long battery life, sleek design, and durability. They see their phone as a vital tool for work, fun, creativity, and daily tasks.

This shift comes during a complex global period. India is expected to ship around 151–153 million smartphones in 2025. But global economic challenges and supply issues affect the industry.

Even though the number of shipments may slow, the market’s value is rising. This shows a move from selling lots of phones to selling better, more valuable phones.
