This is also global, not even US data; iPhones are phenomenally more popular over there than anywhere else as far as I know. This is also one of the reasons some seriously begin to believe Android would be a “poor man’s phone”.
They’re more often subsidized by carriers here (in the US), too. I didn’t really want* an iPhone, but $400 new for a Plus, with a plan discount, just makes an Android set not worth it.

At that point I would start questioning why that particular phone is subsidized so much. Seems sus.

It gets even worse if you separate users by age groups. Younger people overwhelmingly go for iPhones.

Yes but when it comes to OS share, Android completely dominates.
