I have to believe the peer pressure for having a green bubble is pretty intense. Today’s teenagers are still mostly children of boomer/gen x parents as well so their hand-me-downs aren’t going to be top shelf android hardware.
I’d be interested to see what these numbers look like in 6 or 7 years. 22-23 years old is when you first have disposable income and are still idealistic. The openness of Android was a big draw for me at that age before I eventually switched to iPhone
i was in high school around the ending years of apple’s golden era, and i don’t remember the reputation being so starkly different; if anything tech and the internet and phones as a whole weren’t really cool to care about whatsoever – now it’s just the world they live in…

When exactly was that? Apple’s never been more popular than they are now.
in my teenager years I was always fascinated by complicated things, even rooted my Android phone and customized it with CyanogenMod quite a lot.
Sure, witnessed a lot of bugs, some of them more disturbing that others, but it was a cool learning process.
With age, family, kids and more responsibilities, I just wanted something that “just works” as I didn’t have enough time to troubleshoot anymore 😞
I don’t think it’s ok to generalize what teenagers want, at that age I wasn’t even sure what I want with my life haha
