Statistics given on the first post of this thread are the same type that we see all over the Internet though. iOS users are in great abundance in site visits, while Android users are not. iOS users spend much more on applications off the App Store, etc. Isn't that why game companies like Epic, whom I believe make the Infinity Blade series, choose only to release games on iOS? One of the developers even stated that was the reason. Seems to me that people who buy the iPhone actually use it. Android customers just buy it to have a smartphone. That's what I gathered anyway.
Got a tip for us?

I'm from London chap... Nice rant though
I'm sorry. Did I make a bogus assumption based of flawed data. Interesting that you noticed it now.
Yep, real low life.
I think your driver license should say whether you got your iPhone new at full price and just haven't upgraded or if you got free on contract so you aren't confused with these bottom dwellers.
/s
How is it flawed data? Look at my first post, it's very clear that Android users have less income.
My company is now stoping future android releases and focusing on iOS
Now I know you're trolling. First off you say in the title that iOS users are smarter than Android users, then you pull some numbers out of your arse relating to money spent on a holiday.
LOL. Please tell me how owning an iPhone can actually be a precursor to higher income? You do know that iPhones are given away for free with O2, Orange, 3, etc... So what does this tell us about these people? They living on a government stipend because they decided to get a free phone on contract? Your rationale is flawed from the base.
But hey, why stop with your assumptions about Android owners, which is based on your tiny little part of the world? I have a feeling your views on race, sexuality and creed are probably just as skewed.
My father uses a Motorola Razr. It doesn't connect to the settings on his wall for his indoor pool! How embarrassing!
Anyone that think android users are broke are probably......broke
Edit : btw heres a pic of the pool. And yes that is an indoor grille in the.background

I hate you and your ilk... kidding kidding. I am so jealous right now. Why do you have to do this to me!
I notice you haven't revealed who "your company" is.
That is because, if they are in fact a legitimate company, they would fire your ass in a heartbeat over the nonsense that you spewed--allegedly with their data.

Agreed. Some times i feel little uncomfortable. When someone sarcastically asks what phone am i use. I think they been faced with Apple or Android fun bots

Wow, how old are again ?
Dude you are such a shower (in french). Look up the word.
Your company? LOL! So cute, it's like listening to a trained monkey who has been taught to repeat words.
Worse yet is it is actually quite sad....
I am so jealous!! Beautiful!!
Typical "elite" Apple fanboy response.
Your logic is that spending more money means you get a better product.
lol
Very nice crib mate! There is only one thing that my pad is missing and that is that indoor SS grill! The black granite counters, with stone tiling is a perfect match. Awesome. Me wants!
But you and your dad have Android phones, so you obviously are poor.
But maybe poor is a relative term to the OP? As in, compared to Bill Gates you are poor. If you didn't use Android you could afford it!
Seriously though, the grill part is easy. The exhaust system, not so much. Don't ask me how I know.

Actually he has an Android phone. I have an iPhone. I live in a condo a few states away from him. It goes without saying he has more money then me. Lol
You are all nobody's until you order a holiday with welshy's company on an iPad.
Including me. :-(

I think it's rather silly to call someone poor or dumb or smart based on their platform of choice.
That's as silly as people who think just because someone is with verizon as opposed to sprint that makes them ghetto or poor.
Tyler durden said it best!

What makes you think the OP is a troll?
Here's a WSJ article with interesting insights.
//Owners of other Apple devices had similar traits, with higher incomes than users of BlackBerrys or smartphones running on Googles Android software, according to BIGinsight.
Theres evidence this higher income level translates into higher spending. Nearly half of retailers in a recent study by Forrester Research and Shop.org said users of tablets who by a large majority are iPad owners tend to place bigger online orders on average than users of laptops or desktops. Shoppers on Apple devices like iPhones also outspend shoppers using Android or Blackberry devices, according to IBM, which tracks data from retailers.
And while there are twice as many mobile gamers on Android devices in the U.S. as there are on iPhone and iPads, the amount spent by Apple gamers is five times higher than Android gamers, according to international gaming market research firm Newzoo.
In light of this, retailers have scrambled to roll out mobile apps geared toward iPhone and iPad users, often before rolling out their Android versions. And some are retooling their regular websites to make them work better with Apple devices, removing Flash video, which Apples mobile devices dont support, and spacing out links for easier targeting with fingers.//

Though I think it's BS to call this an "intellectual divide." It seems like a socioeconomic divide to me.
