Abstract / Introduction
Taking a right purchase decision from the plethora of mobile phones is a daunting task. Many local websites do not have authentic information and international resources doesn’t cover spec sheets / reviews of mobile devices that are officially launched in our country. This results in incorrect decisions and, in the worst case, unsatisfied purchase and wastage of money.
Our web-based application will try to tackle these issues by providing official / verified content about mobile devices that are launched by respective companies in Pakistan. This app will also include video reviews of verified reviewers from Pakistan which will help user making sensible decision and will help them to answer the question “Is this device worth the money?
