Therefore, the main research question of this study is to compare brand preferences between Apple and Samsung among students of two countries. This study is followed by quantitative research approach. Both primary and secondary data were used in this research. Primary data were obtained through structured questionnaires given to respondents for in depth interview. Data were analyzed using statistical software: SPSS. The research result revealed that the brand loyalty is high among Apple users; hence Apple has a strong brand preference over Samsung among the students of Japan. In contrast, brand loyalty is high among Samsung users in Bangladesh since it has a strong brand preference over Apple because of open-sourced Android operating system and cheaper price of the product. The study has shown that the customer perceived value of Apple is higher than that of Samsung.
