Abstract:
The whole world is accepting and adopting the ways towards the advancement of
technology. The youth is playing a vital role in this rapid race.
The mobile phone is a status symbol for young people. The features of the phone, the
appearance and personalised accessories all attest the phone’s status with 60% of
young people reporting they are keen to upgrade their mobile phone. Even the
ownership of a mobile phone indicates that one is socially connected, accessible and
in demand. It can also be seen as a symbol of independence from one’s family.
