Android isn't cool with teenagers, and that's a big problem

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

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

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...

Android was cool as a teen because they had more games and emulators I could play during classes. Nowadays I have an iPhone because it just works for 3 years, then gets a new battery for like $100, and works for another 3 years. That’s 6 years of phone for $1500 for 6 years of phone if you go for a pro with 256GB

Really? I thought the Z Flip was pretty popular

A good way to live your life is to take whatever is cool to teenagers and do the opposite. You'll come out ahead 9 times out of 10
