Which Smartphone Are You? Android vs Apple

I must be a young male, outright lying, have no idea, would break my phone for personal gain if there was any and have no concerns regarding the climate we are in.

I have a Windows phone....

Frankly,.. I started using apple products because I won an Apple Ipad at the company Christmas party a few years back... so would that make me a victim of circumstance...

nothing like a narrow band of questionnaires (probably regional at that) to give everybody a statically representation.

I have an iphone because my son, who is a computer guru and whose specialty is in the field of privacy and security, strongly recommended the iphone vs an android. He has an iphone, an ipad, and a couple different laptops on which he runs ios, windows, and linux depending on what he's doing.

I've had a few different iphones; never had a problem with any of them. Currently have a 6s+ and I'm quite happy with it.

SILENCE! You,... you young female extravert you.

wow,... statistics can be right some times....

Totally bogus, might just as well go by horoscope....Most people acquire their phone by a string of happenstance circumstances....

I have an Android and my daughter has an Apple, so the first two lines definitely fit.

I wonder what my flip phone says about me.

I had to wait two weeks for the local Sprint store to get my Kyocera DuraXE. Easily fits into my front pocket, charge lasts for about a week, ruggedized and 'water-proof' to fifteen feet, but I do endeavor to keep it dry.

My latest came from the grandkids toybox.

No worries - what goes on the Internet stays on the Internet.

And then of course there are the security agencies ...

well, ahhhh,... you swing both ways?....

My first Phartsmone was an Apple, but then switched to Android after the contract was up. Not because of the brand of the phone, but because of the worthless wireless provider it was serviced by.

My last personal cell phone was a Sonim military grade unit I just used for phone calls and nothing else.

What's that say about me?

Durable, reliable, long lasting, impossible to break and dedicated to doing what I was designed to do better than anyone else?

I have a camera that's also a cell phone.

iPhone users are also less likely to use:

* their phone's built-in spell checker. (extrovert)

However, iPhone 60 users are more likely to:

* own a canoe

Did they consider outside influences on choice? I currently have an android, because my daughter couldn't make plan payments, so I took them over. I had no choice on the phone type. On top of that, neither did she - she got what her boyfriend chose and was stuck with that when he left her - she was suckered into putting it in her name.

Considering current fluidity of relationships, I wonder how many people actually chose their phone model.

Add cost to that as well - around here, with high unemployment, it is mostly a "what can I afford" choice. How much did that figure into the study?

I wonder how many people actually chose their phone model.

I agree... I've seen that, as I stated, what got me on Apple was that I won one at the company christmas party. Prior to that, I myself, never would have never bought an apple product, un the other hand, I'm also willing to try something new. I've have (2) apple phones (I lost one phone, and after I got another, I found it) and upgraded my ipad since then.

The real truth is - I would have never chosen either one. Until I was stuck with one, I failed to see the usefulness of one. Now that I have one, and use it to save trips to the office when on the production floor, to take pictures of equipment data tags on instruments on the production floor for the UL inspector, and most importantly, to have a camera on my bike rides that won't be instantly destroyed in a crash, as my Fuji camera would. Phones can take a very extensive beating and still work. Dumped mine on the sheet of ice I hit on Saturday and it sailed across the ice for many yards, but it still works. I will replace the one I have someday. I will probably stay android since I have learned the operating system rules, not because of my personality. Another issue I bet they missed in their study.

I have less use as a phone... I prefer text message... I hate talking to people, or I should say having to listen while they talk.

Otherwise I use the camera in them for work and GPS. It's a rip off. Fortunately, believe it or not, I have Verizon, I had them way back in the 90's when it was PrimeCo so I get a loyalty discount and on top of that, Verizon also gives and extra 17% discount through my company.

and it's still too much, but I love the GPS is the only reason I have it.

GPS - I need to try that, as 95% of my bike riding is off road, even in winter. For now I'm stuck in very familiar territory, (oil lease roads) but in summer, I can see that becoming a life saver sometime.

Yeah - Verizon is about the only choice around here in the sticks. "Can you hear me now?" still applies in the Wilds of Pennsylvania. That 1% less coverage T-Mobile mentions is here.

I love it, you can change from driving, walking or riding a bike. Its powered by TomTom

But I don't believe it has bike trails.

We vacationed in D.C. in 2015 and did a lot of walking. It was great... that is when you got reception.

Totally under the radar. Windows phone user. LoL

I prefer the Iphone because of the physical design and software seems to work best. (I had a less than stellar experience with a google nexus 7 tablet when it first came out.)

I did make the mistake of upgrading my iphone to IOS 10 and have been having issues with battery drain. I checked Apple's website and it looks like my phone is eligible for a recall to replace the battery.

My sister and brother-in-law recently purchased new google phones, but had to wait a long time to receive them. I'm curious to see if they will like them.

The company I use started off with brick phones, over time they developed into using the Android system. When they first started an apple was something that Newton caught as it fell from a tree.

I currently use a phone that a i chose, a Casio commando, a very durable device, although after owning it for several years, I still have figured out its myriad of functions, mainly because it didn't come with its 400 page instruction book.

A year ago our company decided to replace our small Nokia phones with a Sonim phone. Most people were not a fan. It was the size and weight of a small brick. The sound was terrible especially on the shop floor. I could barely conduct conversations. The camera was also very poor. The upside is I could drive over it and submerge it under water with no ill effects. These aspects were not real handy for everyday use at work.

I eventually requested an iphone 6s upgrade that is an option for most managers/engineers. Now that’s handy or should I say ‘smart’. Good sound, small, light, camera works great for capturing part numbers, bad parts, pc screen captures, machine crashes, broken parts, and various other shop floor data that I can email or text to others in the facility. I can also check my emails and Outlook notifications from anywhere.

I do like the iphone. My wife has an Android that works well also.

Personally I have a cheaper Android/Motorola Moto E 2^nd gen smart phone that I use on the “Bring your own Phone” option that Tracphone has. It works great also. If I had to choose android or apple I’m not sure which way I’d go.

Here is a bit of incidental info concerning these three phones – my work iphone, wife’s higher end Android/Samsung/AT&T and my cheaper Android/Motorola/Tracphone . When at the cabin in northwest Wisconsin, USA where virtually no one has ever gotten service, on a good day (and on the high ground and maybe the stars are aligned) only my cheap Motorola has been able to get service.

Here’s the part where I tell others why my Tracphone is the real “Smart phone” - it costs me about $20 dollars every 3 months and it pretty much has whatever I need.

Not sure how this all fits into the “Study”.

There’s my two cents.

I couldn't use a stupid I-phone if my life depended on it.

Lyn,

I have an old Western Bell rotary phone. I would be happy to send it to you. Please send your name, address and p.o. box number and I will send it out to you.

I'm calling your bluff.

I'll take it.................................if you really have it, that is.

Now, do you want me to send you my address?

My Ex had both the Ipad and Iphone and they never worked well for me. Apparently their touch screens weren't designed to work with the cold hard calloused hands of someone who worked for a living.

Or mine either.

Did you try washing the tire smoke stained grease off your hands? .
