GenZers who own an Android have lost track of how many times they've been bullied for not having an iPhone but they still refuse to switch
From green text bubbles to separate group chats, Gen Z Android users have heard it all from peers who own iPhones — and the jokes aren't always that funny.Financial Times revealed Gen Z, those born from 1997 on, makes up only 10% of US Samsung owners, but the age group makes up a third of all iPhone users in the US.
"Having any Apple product seems to be considered a luxury, and I don't really understand that," Carrier said."People would come to me asking why I don't have an iPhone and making rude comments about my Samsung, but it does everything their phone does." Santiago Gaughan, a 21-year-old college student in Houston told Insider he always took comments urging him to replace his Android with an iPhone as jokes and feels"no pressure at all" to make the switch.
