15.  HYPOTHESES Nokia has better features than other brands People will buy Nokia more if it has android platform Nokia Lumia is a youth- centric phone

16. HYPOTHESIS 1:  Nokia has better features than other brands

17. Justification to Hypothesis 1 The survey which we had taken from the respondents clearly depicts that Nokia has some better features compared to other brands. Out of the given seven features, Nokia has been rated as the best in the four features (Good battery life, value for money, service centre, satisfaction level) followed by Apple and Sony.

18. HYPOTHESIS 2:  People will buy Nokia more if it has android platform.

19. Justification to hypothesis 2 We are inferring that 26 % of the respondents are ready to switch over to Nokia with android platform while 43 % might or might not switch over. The remaining 31 % respondents are not bothered or will not switch over to Nokia with android platform. Thus we can say that there are chances of people switching over to Nokia when it comes to Android platform.

20. Hypothesis 3:  Nokia Lumia is a youth-centric phone.

21. Justification to hypothesis 3 We came to the conclusion from our survey that Samsung Galaxy is the closest to the youth-generation brand followed by I phone 5 at the second then Nokia Lumia at the third followed by the rest of the brands. Thus we can say that Nokia Lumia is among the top three youth-generation brand which clearly states that Nokia still has a good hold in mobile phones.

22. STRENGTH User friendly with many accessories. High resale value compared to the other phones. WEAKNESS Non trendy operating system. Slow to adopt new ways of thinking. OPPORTUNITIES High growth in Telecom industry. CDMA market. THREATS Inexpensive Asian brands. To maintain its position from its competitors SWOT

23.  FUTURE PROSPECTS & RECOMMENDATIONS  Needs to power up the brand strategy, “Connecting People”  Needs the leadership to demonstrate that it can turn the hard into the possible.  Nokia can be fashionable again.  Needs to inspire an authentic community.
