Given the cost of phones lately, everything matters! I was seriously looking to buy a new phone since the one I have is showing its age at 4 years. I looked at specifications, performance and reviews. You can buy smartphones now for similar screen, cam & battery specs but widely different pricing.

No. Is it one of the points that I look at to see how much bang do I get for my hard earned money, absolutely!
