Samsung Electronics America has been ranked #1 for customer satisfaction among 5G mobile devices in the 2023 American Customer Satisfaction Index Survey (ACSI®). The Index, which surveys customers rating their own mobile devices, recognizes industry leaders for their excellence in product quality, service repair, mobile app reliability and warranty coverage.
According to Samsung research, 73% of consumers shopping for a new smartphone indicated that technical support was a key factor in their purchase decision. 89% stated that durability was also an important consideration[1]. In addition to customer satisfaction, ACSI ranked Samsung #1 among 5G phones in overall quality, product quality and service quality1. The company also ranked #1 in perceived value among overall brand comparisons.
“Customers put a lot of consideration into their technology purchases. They want both peace of mind they are buying reliable devices that will work for their needs, as well as confidence that if something does go wrong, they have quality repair options,” said Mark Williams, Vice President of Customer Care at Samsung Electronics America. “This ACSI recognition is a testament to the investments Samsung has made to provide consumers value – in the products we manufacture and the convenient, expert customer care we offer.”
The ACSI survey is the nation’s only cross-industry measure of customer satisfaction. Since 1994, the survey has been recognized as a leader in analyzing consumer sentiment about the products and services used most often. Between April 2022 and March 2023, the ACSI Cell Phone Manufacturer Study surveyed over 4,000 U.S. consumers who recently purchased mobile phones to evaluate the quality of their experiences.
