Amazon Prime Day heats up searches for iPhones in large Brazilian retailers in July

A survey carried out by startup Simplex also highlights an increase in demand for microwaves and tablets

São Paulo, August 2023. Amazon Prime Day has boosted demand for iPhones on the Internet, especially high-end models. This is shown by the data from the July edition of Radar Simplex, a survey created by the Franco-Brazilian startup Simplex, which monitors searches made by consumers in the largest e-commerces in Brazil and captures trends through an artificial intelligence platform. Apple's smartphone was up 698% compared to June, occupying third place in the ranking of items most desired by Brazilians. The survey shows an increase in demand for models 11, 12 and 13, in particular.

"Promotions always move the market, because consumers are curious to compare prices in different places and make sure they're getting a good deal. And it's already common for various models of iPhones to be in the top positions," explains João Lee, CEO of Simplex, which specializes in increasing qualified traffic, conversion and online sales.

Microwaves (+1,135%) and tablets (+190%) also appear in the ranking, probably still reflecting Amazon Prime Day, according to the startup. 

Other items that rose compared to the previous month were barbecues and men's sneakers. "This could already indicate an upswing for Father's Day," says João.
