Buying electronic gadgetry is not a laymen’s job. Although the customer nowadays is spoilt of choices with so many varieties of products and with so many varied features he still has to make the final cut regarding the one that suits him the most. With so much of high decibel advertising and marketing executives going over the board to prove that their product is better the choice becomes quite a Herculean task. On the top of it if you are a novice with regards to technology than this job becomes quite a nightmare.
So the basic question, which comes to the minds of each and every customer, is what to choose and what is the paradigm to be followed during the making of that choice. We suggest a plain a simple procedure, which would make your decision making easy. Firstly you should start with a comparative analogy of the same product but by different companies. You decision making must be influenced by the following factors

1. Requirements
2. Brand
3. Value for money
4. Features
5. Durability
6. Consumer review
7. Suitability

1. Requirement: once you have decided that you are going to by a specific electronics product you must fist come to a decision about what your requirements and expectations are from that product. Suppose you want to buy a mobile phone. You should then decide what are the features and characteristics that you want your mobile phone to have .do you need a camera? Do you need Bluetooth? Do you require inbuilt internet connection? These are the kinds of questions you have to ask yourselves before you come to a conclusion about the product. . This is the most critical part of your decision making process because if you buy a product and it does not have the features that you wanted it to have than your whole effort in buying that product is wasted as you will not have the mental satisfaction with the product you have bought.

2. Brand: another thing that has to be looked into is the brand of the product. A product from a well-known reputed brand gives an assurance about the quality of the product. As an average buyer you can never determine the technical viability and efficiency of the product until and unless you are a specialist, so buying a product from a reputed brand is the best solution. Although a reputed brand might have a hefty price tag to their products in comparison to unknown brands but in the long run it proves a better deal.

3. Value for money: every person works hard for the money he earns nothing comes for free so when you buy a product you should see to the fact that you get the best value for your money. You should compare the price range of all products giving similar features and the same kind of quality before taking any decision about buying a product.

4.features: marketing blitz by companies makes sure that you see the best features of there company products but you have to sit down and look for certain extra features which a certain product has which no other competing product possess. Also these features has to be in line with your needs and requirements otherwise what use they are if you do not need them.

5. Durability: an electronic product might have extra features, value for money and the technical superiority but what is the use if it starts to malfunction within months from its purchase date. so while buying the product check its durability if possible select the product that gives a product guarantee for a specific amount of time. In this way the company ensures for its durability.

6. Consumer reviews: if you are a person who does not have the time, energy or patience
to undergo the above you should look at customer reviews to come at a decision. Customer reviews are the best place to know about the product because it gives an unsolicited view of the product with ought being influenced. Advertisements and add campaigns never tell you the whole story it only gives you a glossy picture of the actual thing while customer reviews give you the real picture.
7. Suitability: clothes reflect your personality and so does electronics goods. You would be judged by the mobile phone you use or the camcorder you posses. So while buying a mobile always looks for the one that completely reflects your personality.
