For the life of me, I can't understand why CNN would waste the energy to even actually research this let alone report it. It's insulting to everyone and who ****ing cares.

Wait, let me understand this. You are actually asking who ****ing cares what the demographics are regarding who is purchasing a certain product? Really? You are asking that as if you don't understand why it is important?

Um, let's see who would care about the demographics of who buys a particular product. Hmm. I am stumped. Can't for the life of me figure it out.

I'm a man and I have an iPhone 6. I am also rich, as I consider being rich as being a happy person with no concern's in life since I see the world as this beautiful place where we can experience and be grateful of this consciousness we have been blessed with.
 
Why do they have to always turn everything into a race issue?
Divide & Conquer.
 
Lol *********.

Where were they researching? Most of the iPhone transactions I see are by non-white folk or women.
 
Only RICH WHITE MEN buy iPhone 6's ??

To be honest, the richest ethnicity in my area seems to be Asian. I saw lots of old people using iphone
 
I think I read a survey a few years ago stating that the iPhone was the #1 phone amongst the poor in Sweden. It looks expensive and you always get it for free when you sign up for a contract.. win/win for the economically challenged..

The more financially stable crowd usually don´t buy phones at all since they get one for free from their employer. And depending on what the company IT guy likes you get a version of that..
 
I don't recall answering any demographic information when I purchased my 6+. I don't recall participating in any surveys either regarding my iPhone purchase. Funny that.

Journalists rarely report well on statistical information. Usually it takes the research group conducting the survey to provide the proper data interpretation or at least something that makes a lot more sense. Editors want sensational headlines that will get people to talking about, clicking, and/or sharing their articles. Kind of like OP stating "ONLY" in place of "MAJORITY" which is what the title of the article states.

Whatever. I'm simply going to enjoy my iPhone.
