My research has attained the main objective which is to study the factors that influence
purchase intention of smartphone brands of young consumers in Uzbekistan. Four determinants
of purchase intention are identified and examined in this study, which are brand image, price,
product features and peer influence. On the other hand, all of the hypotheses are supported and
