As the lion's share of phones are bought with a contract, this is a point that deafens my ear.
You buy your iPhone along with signing up for the contract. The networks throw in one of the Android iPhone clones for free with your contract. Very few people actually buy an Android phone, in the ultimate analysis, because there is no premium factor in having what amounts to a clunky, limited, and undesired iPhone lookalike with a slow GUI and hardly any apps.
Talk turkey to me.
- alextgordon 16y agoAs the lion's share of phones are bought with a contract [citation needed]. I would actually imagine that the opposite is true: prepaid phones outnumber contract phones, but I can't find sources either way. In Europe and especially the developing world, pre-paid phones are very common. It's a market that Android has hardly even entered.
