Why do people care so much if you have an iPhone?

I'm perfectly aware that there are substantive technical differences between different types of phones. But as far as my subjective user experience is concerned, it's all the same. I'm not doing anything all that sophisticated with my phone on a daily basis. I'm running some basic apps to manage my social media presence and looking up trivial minutiae on the internet to win petty arguments with my brother.

So, from my perspective, any basic smart phone is suitable to my needs. While I'm sure that Apple and Android fans can both make fine points regarding the pros and cons of the various phones and OS's, I'm not particularly invested in that debate since my needs are so basic.
