- VLM 10y agoNot in my observation. Where I work there is a low paid call center on another floor of this giant building, and they all have iphones. Its like shoes. At my socioeconomic level when I want to blow some cash or show off some money I go on a thousands of dollar vacation travel or maybe buy a new car, for me its enough to show I have some dough, but its cheap enough to fit my cash flow. Likewise a step or two or three downward, their way of flashing cash is the $400 sneakers or $400 video game system or in this specific case, the $400 iphone. They may have saved from months of paychecks to afford it, but I'm not really all that different other than I went to Ireland instead. Or I bought a car mostly in cash. Its the same behavior at a different scale. Android is definitely in the middle, from what I observe. No one over $400K or under $40K has an android phone, at least not that I've seen.
