Executive Summary

We recently surveyed US consumers about their technology usage, and mobile carrier brands score very low in comparison to both technology brands and the brands of their handset suppliers. Among the major operators, Verizon's score is highest, although this is due in large part to the lift from its nonmobile offerings. When Verizon is weighted for this factor, Cingular inches ahead and scores slightly higher. Among phone makers, Motorola outpaces Samsung, Nokia, and Palm, while LG Electronics fares worst. Consumers place more trust in handset brands than in those of carriers, although device makers' brands are subject to more fluctuation in trust than the brands of their customers, the mobile operators.
