Consider it a judgment call — some women find men who own a Google Android phone as an alternative of an Apple iPhone less attractive.
TikToker Travaine Barnett hit the streets in October to ask ladies what it’s about Android devices, notorious for green text message bubbles that show up on iPhones, that give them the ick.
“I can’t text you in green, like, no,” one woman lamented on camera.
“You’re less attractive due to the Android,” added one other.
The Post reached out to Google for comment.
One other woman griped that owning a Samsung device implies that she will be able to’t FaceTime with a strapping lad.
She may not realize that Apple recently rolled out a feature to video chat with other smartphones.
Meanwhile, a 2020 survey found that owning an iPhone makes you 76% more prone to succeed on the planet of online dating.
Having a Google phone lessened probabilities by 10%.
Those stuck in 2008 with a Blackberry had their probabilities hindered by 74%.
One other study, from 2018, found that 70% of singles prefer iPhone users to Android owners.
Gen Z shows a few of the strongest brand loyalty to iPhones — research has found that 87% of them own an iPhone.
And 88% say their next phone shall be an iPhone as well.
Yet, globally, Android holds 71% of the market share in comparison with just 29% by Apple.
Within the US, the iPhone overtook the Android in 2010 and has never looked back.
