A significant number of smartphone owners are unimpressed by AI features, with 25% finding them unhelpful and 45% reluctant to pay for them. Longer battery life, more storage, and better camera features are the primary motivators for upgrading devices, not AI integrations. While tech giants like Apple, Google, and Samsung emphasize AI, consumer interest remains low, potentially due to subscription fatigue and privacy concerns. Despite this, some demographics, like Gen Z and Millennials, show more enthusiasm for AI features, using them for tasks like photo editing and text generation. Privacy concerns are also prevalent, with 34% of smartphone owners expressing unease about AI and data usage.
