Flipkart partnered with First Post to conduct “India’s biggest smartphone survey” and here’s what they found regarding user’s feature preferences and the difference between Gen X and millennials. Be warned that there’s a non-zero chance this is a promotion for the upcoming Realme 2.

It seems like Indians young and old love the notch. And performance is the most important factor by far. This is where they diverge – millennials (18-30) want a good camera, Gen X (30-45) wants long battery life.

But looking at the statistics, camera and battery aren’t that important. The top “must-have” feature – with an overwhelming 57% of the votes – was performance.

As for colors, Black is the most popular option with 51% of the vote, then comes Blue with about half that and finally Red with 10%.

Anyway, it’s this last bit that makes us think this survey is really a way to drum up interest in the soon to be announced Realme 2 by Oppo.

I can't believe this. I hate notches with a vengeance. It totally spoils the look of a phone.
