HP leads local laptop market

Market researcher Nielsen Viet Nam has released the results of a survey of Viet Nam’s top 10 brand names in the information and technology field.

In terms of laptops and PCs, HP ranked first, followed by Sony and Dell.

With the introduction of the IPad, Apple has become more popular in Viet Nam and ranked fourth.

In the mobile phone market, Nokia continued to lead the way, despite Viet Nam’s mobile market being flooded by hot new brand names.

According to Nielsen Viet Nam, Nokia phones won the first place because they were multi-functional and affordable.

Following Nokia was Apple with the appearance of the iPhone 4 that mirrored the storm it had created in foreign countries. Samsung came third.

MobiFone came out on top as the leading provider of mobile phone and internet services, followed by Viettel and FPT.

For household goods, Sony was still the brand of choice for Vietnamese customers.

Although many preferred cheaper products, others still chose famous brand names such as Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba and Daewoo.

The survey, conducted by Nielsen and Campaign Asia last month, questioned 1,003 city people aged between 15 and 45. — VNS
