Is iPhone and Android merely tastes or is their a socio-economic element involved?

I got in an argument with my friend, Tyler and he said that Androids and iPhones are not really aesthetic like choosing film directors or Beatles vs Rollingstones.

Androids are directed more for working class people and iPhones for middle and upper class.

I've seen old ladies in the bus with iPhones, I've seen janitors, waiters, all kinds of people with iPhones.

Now granted, you do see apple more in the working class than you see Android in the upper class but I don't think its too much thr argument.

What do you think?

It's more what you are used to and what you can afford or are willing to pay and whether or not you are into stereotypical badges of coolness. I'm not nearly cool enough for an iPhone for example.

Android is better

The Beatles are awesome

Cell phones have come to the point where there's snob appeal.

I bet he's an apple guy. So he's trying to build himself up.

  • Would the police get involved for an expensive stolen object by a minor? My mom bought me glasses($400). They are "real" and the lenses are made to fit my eye vision. I'm in middle school and a high school boy who has a reputation for stealing things (ipods, iphones etc) stole my glasses while he was hanging out with me. Will the police be willing to get involved in this? I live in California. I really need them back, they're expensive and I can barely see anything during class… Or life
  • Why do poor people care more about their image and buying nice clothes than feeding their family or paying bills? I see tons of poor people who make less than 20k a year spending their entire income on nice clothes and shoes and purses and makeup. Their children are starving they can't even afford to use the air conditioner or pay for electricity but they absolutely need to buy a new iPhone or a new pair of high heels
  • When Android user sends text to a mixed group of iPhone and Android users? A family member who is an Android user sent a text message to a large group of recipients, including me. The group has both Android users and iPhone users. I'm an iPhone user. Does this mean that I will receive everyone else s messages like an iMessage group, or will all messages go directly between the conversation starter and whoever is messaging him, without any of the other group members seeing what the other members said?
  • How do people send text messages using their email instead of their phone number on their iphone? Ok so I want to be able to send a text message to someone without my phone number being revealed but my email address to that person and I was wondering if there was a way to do that. Because when some people send me a text message I see their email instead of their phone number. How can I do this?
