‘You’re Telling Me in 2023, You Still Have a ’Droid?’ Why Teens Hate Android Phones - Lemmy.world

(unpaywalled version on archive.today: https://archive.ph/03cwZ [https://archive.ph/03cwZ]) Interesting figure that comes out of the article: 87% of US teens prefer iPhones. Also the explanations given aren’t quite surprising, I guess it’s mostly because of iMessage. Teens will feel like outcasts if they get an Android phone while their friends still use iMessage because of the green bubbles [https://technology.inquirer.net/121775/why-green-imessage-bubbles-are-a-no-no-for-us-teens]. It’s actually hilarious how we allowed consumerism to take us this far. >“You’re telling me in 2023, you still have a ’Droid? […] You gotta be at least 50 years old.” ouch 😔

Yeah that still depends on the instance in which posts came from, but on c/Android it’s already a lot less US centric than r/Android was imo.
