But you were a dick about it, your comment is not simply explanatory - "Many android users looooooove to tell people about how much control they have over their phone. Everyone knows! Nobody cares!"

This appears to be a facet of the iphone being dominant. In the UK market for instance, this characterisation wouldn't really fly as android is used by a lot of 'normal' people.

> their own phone might explode before we get back to civilization

characterising android phones this way is like me saying that you need to hold an iphone a specific way or it won't get signal - it might have been true for one model a few years ago but isn't really relevant to most.

I guess this is why you're getting the downvotes.



It's an article and study about the US. Everyone has a variety of answers now. iOS users (in the US) really make unprompted quips about "the other" this way, when not in mixed company. I feel extremely comfortable letting people in on whats going on, 87%.
