Im afraid I may have skewed the results of this. As I am not a note II owner yet, because I am an AT&T customer, and my upgrade is the 10th.

Edit: Also Im 27

He he well, I'm the only tech-geek in my family so wouldn't count on the others to buy the right phone:-P
Other than that I've already made room for the Samsung Series 7 Chronos notebook on my list :-D

Guess i'm here to prove your wrong.

There should be a voting system for people with iphones. 90% would be under 18's. Literally everywhere I look there's people with iphone's (i guess because there simple) I have only seen 1 person with a samsung and it was an S3.

I think that also depends on demographic region. In a big city like LA, where there are apple stores all over the place, the iPhone pretty much dominates...but, I do see more and more Android phones as the past couple years have gone by.

My point of view isn't demographically related but carrier related. Back in '07 when only AT&T carried the iPhone, it left the door open for it to become the it phone. Anybody whose anybody had to have one.....#1 it was the 1st Apple phone. #2 only one carrier had it. Those 2 factors alone, IMO raised the smugness bar to a new level.

I think this is what turned more and more people to android; they wanted a phone they thought was equally as cool as the iPhone. There were plenty of people who ditched their carrier to get the iPhone yet at the same time there were plenty who didn't.

Just in my family, the 18-30 age bracket, is 5 people totaling 6 iPhones. 30+ age bracket is all android; using Nexus or S2.

I was tempted to get an iPhone before, because everyone in my family had it and I never researched alternatives. But when Apple started price fixing ebooks and suing everyone and their dog, the appeal for me disappeared.

The appeal for me disappeared but not because Apple was suing. I follow tech like a dog after a bone and it began to bother me terribly the amount of apps or technology apple would "acquire" from others then act like they invented it themselves. It began with the notification bar and made me just look at them a bit differently.

Also, the allure of jailbraking became boring. Here it is I'm jailbraking to do what android does natively yet apple would rather I believe they're providing for me what's best for me. No thanks!

I disagree slightly, regarding the reasons behind the iPhone becoming the "it" phone. The popularity of the iPod is what spearheaded the eventual popularity of the iPhone. Before iTunes and the popularity of the iPod, Apple wasn't anywhere near in site when it came to tech. What made it so "popular" is that people described the products as "easy to use," while also marketing it as a phone that could do more than any other smartphone (which was a marketing gimic part of it, since Windows Mobile actually had more functionality than the iPhone).

What turned more and more people to Android? This is where I do agree, to an extent, that it was due to carrier availability. Before Verizon, followed by Sprint, closed a deal with Apple, people definitely wanted something like the iPhone, but "easy to use." I think majority of general consumers don't want to hassle with customizations (which is why Windows Mobile failed...and really was losing me as a supporter). Take myself, I enjoy customizations, but my biggest complaint on Windows Mobile is having to take hours just to customize the look/feel of my phone. I accomplish just as much in 1/2 the time w/ Android. Apple, while somewhat customizable, cannot acheive the same as Android without jailbreaking the phone.

I think the iPhone vs. Android debate now comes down to which device suits your needs better in how you think and interact with your device. Best thing Apple did was start to sell the iPhones on subsidized pricing. Otherwise, parents would be more inclined to pay less money upfront with subsidized Android phones, rather than the bigger amount upfront for the iPhone.

I was tempted when I was considering leaving Sprint, but knew about Android and was just waiting for the right Android device, prior to jumping on the bandwagon. I'm very glad that Sprint didn't offer the iPhone until after I was on the Android train. Otherwise, I might not have been willing to give it a shot.

Appeal died for me when I knew that the iPhone was still very limited in customizations compared to what I could do with Windows Mobile (which was really much worse overall than the iPhone). Couple that with the marketing genius of Steve Jobs by purchasing existing technologies and calling them their own...yeah, I guess it's safe to say that I'm not a conformist when it comes to tech. That's what I found great about Android. If you look at anybody's phone, almost every single one is set up differently, looks visually different. The physical attributes make look the same, but the customizability on Android allows people more individuality than Apple. That's something I love!
 
56 here, loved the smartphones and concept since they hit market. don, t ever see me going back, only forward, nothing smaller than this again. went with the note for the processors and capabilities. now will find out this week on phone signal strength and capabilities.so far this thing is the greatest.

Average age, you asked? ... I'm 62... Just got my GN2 20Dec12... Came from the HTC HD2, which after 2 years started messing up!! I like the GN2 big screen, as I did the HD2 when it came out. I hope that somehow I can keep this one going for the next 10 years. I don't need to pay 700USD for a phone every two years!!! My provider is T-Mobile CZ. I buy credit, it lasts me a minimum of four weeks, sometimes six. (I don't call much, but do a LOT of data downloading (news feeds mostly).
Already noticed that I cannot connect my GN2 to my laptop... well, the laptop can read the files that are on the GN2, but I cannot add / manipulate files that are already there... back to the online manual.
PLUS, this cable for recharging this phone does not fit properly into the phone-slot. Funny, the same cable from my old HD2 fits just right!!! growl, grumble!!!
I know that this will be a learning process...
 
Looks like a normal curve, with the average about 30. I raise the average substantially. In fact, I would have removed myself from the sample as being an outlier! :-)
