Since Apple Inc. released the first-generation iPhone in 2007, smartphones have been recognized as the most popular and competitive 3C product in the world in recent years. Traditional researches on repurchase behavior or intention mainly focuses on the influence of customer satisfaction and other variables. In this study, we use the mixed-effects logistic regression model to discover the influence of customer satisfaction/dissatisfaction on repurchase the same brand smartphones, and our model is more efficient than the commonly used logistic regression model. The results indicate that both customer satisfaction/dissatisfaction will affect respondents repurchase the same brand smartphones. The more important finding is that the impact of customer dissatisfaction is greater than that of satisfaction. We also find that the effects of customer dissatisfaction on repurchase behavior of the same brand smartphones is different for each brand. At the same time, we use our model to estimate the probability of repurchase the same brand smartphones for each brand. And we conclude that the Apple iPhone users have higher brand loyalty than other brands, and they will repurchase Apple iPhone again in the future. Compared with other Android system smartphone brands, Samsung is the most competitive brand, over 70% users will repurchase Samsung smartphones in the future.
