Android Phone Tips And Tutorial

Hunch a personal recommendation service, has surveyed 15,818 of its users to determine the average demographic, personality, and lifestyle of iPhone vs Android consumers. The survey even probed differences between snack and cereal choices between the two types of users (iPhone users apparently prefer Malbec and Chianti when it comes to wine. Android users opt for Shiraz and Moscato.).

Of the users surveyed by Hunch, Android users were more likely to be men, ages 18-34 who lean to the right politically. Conversely, iOS users tend to be women over 35 years old and are "17 percent more likely to be politically liberal," according to Hunch's data. 

It's important to note that Hunch's survey does not offer a complete picture of smartphone users. Among the people Hunch surveyed, 32 percent reported using a smartphone running Apple's iOS platform, while 21 percent said they use Google's Android. Hunch also painted a brief portrait of the types of users that opt for other operating systems. One commenter named "Alliedcvil" said, "I have been an Android user for a very long time now and none of the statistics actually apply to me or the other Android users I know". 

For more on Android vs. iPhone users, check out this recent study conducted by Jumptap showing which U.S. states prefer certain mobile operating systems. iPhone vs. Android is the new Mac vs. PC. Android users are jingoistic, knuckle-dragging, male right-wingers who could barely get out of high school and have annoyingly polite telephone manners. The Androidand iPhone users I know are all over the map. Most Android users I know graduated from college, and most iPhone users I know claim they would never, ever text and drive.
