Brand analysis

When a third of the brands in a table are tied at the top spot, you know it’s a competitive field. Amazon, Apple and Samsung all occupy first in Technology Retail in the US in this wave's data.

Amazon is the biggest success story of the three though. The brand has never held the top spot and this wave has added +2 to its Overall Effort Score to get there, moving from fourth position in Q2 2025.

Diving into the pillars, Knowledge & Expertise, Speed of Resolving Problems and Valuing the Customer are all up by +3, while Style of Communication is up by +1.
