  • The experience stores are the most needed among consumers after they purchase a new technology device be it a smartphone, tablet or laptop. If the buyer is not fully aware all the outstanding features the smartphone he purchased has, he can’t fully utilize the device. This is a great move in order to explore the smartphones’ features and to gain more satisfied customers. And the satisfied customer is the best business strategy.
