There are lots of smartphone brands available in Nepal. They are for people with different budgets, tastes, and preferences. So, it is up to you to find a smartphone that suits you. Here we have Top Smartphone Brands In Nepal:
However, here is the list of top smartphone brands that we have chosen. We came up with this list by paying equal importance to price, performance, and design.
1. Samsung
Ok, there is this Samsung vs Apple on most people’s minds. Mostly, in terms of brands, you might have heard about three smartphone brands Apple, Samsung and probably Huawei. Samsung’s brand value, according to Forbes, for the year 2018 was $47.6 billion a lot less than of Apple. But we still think Samsung must be the number one smartphone brand for its durability, range of phones. Moreover, most Nepalis cannot afford Apple.

2. Apple
In 2018, Apple’s brand value in the market was $182.8 billion. This is far more than that of Samsung. But taking account of affordability, we think Apple is second to Samsung in terms of brand importance and visibility.
