Other Apple devices on the list included the iPhone 11 and iPhone 8 Plus, which had scores of 80, and the iPhone 8 and iPhone SE with scores of 79. The iPhone 7 ranked list in the lineup with a score of 75.
Among respondents in the survey, the top criteria for judging a smartphone included ease of text messaging in first place, followed by ease of phone calling, phone design, and audio quality.
The ASCI survey also ranks wireless phone service providers. Compared to a year prior, AT&T achieved an ASCI score of 74, tying with Verizon Wireless. T-Mobile's ASCI score dropped from 76 in 2020 to 72 in 2021. U.S. Cellular came in fourth with a score of 69, while Sprint is no longer part of the ranking.
ASCI's 2020 to 2021 data is based on interviews with 21,189 U.S. consumers carried out between April 1, 2020 and March 29, 2021.
