Can anyone tell me which of these two keyboards would be most familiar to mobile phone users in Pakistan? That is, if I were designing a keyboard for a touchscreen phone, which of these keyboard layouts would I use?

Phonetic Keyboard is mostly used by users. But professionals (e.g Typists) prefer Microsoft's keyboard which is also approved from government of Pakistan's Language Authority.
