The survey found that growth in the smartphone market has stalled, with 91% of consumers in Italy already owning a smartphone and only 56% planning to purchase a new one in the next year. It also saw declining interest in purchasing other consumer technology like tablets, laptops, and televisions. While interest in internet of things devices is rising marginally, concerns over price, privacy, and security are limiting adoption rates. Italian consumers desire innovative new features but are satisfied with their current technology, posing challenges for igniting new growth in the consumer technology sector.
