Yes, they are a status symbol, just like the "blue bubble" v "green bubble" on SMS on iPhone. Blue bubbles mean the person has an iPhone, green bubbles mean the person doesn't have an iPhone. Do you honestly think Apple did that not knowing it would become a status symbol?
- lotsofpulp 6y agoThey might have intended that, but I still don't see the status in being able to afford a $400 phone. The vast majority of Americans can afford that, and obviously do based on how many iPhones I see. The cashier at target uses an iPhone, the lawyers I see use iPhone, the programmers use iPhones, the housekeepers who don't speak English at a hotel I see use iPhones. What is the status? To me, the blue bubble means it's not using inferior MMS protocols which may or may not get the message to the recipient. I prefer using iMessage/Signal/Whatsapp.
