> If Android users are roughly 50% in the US, then the likelihood of knowing zero people that use Android is quite small.

If you mostly associate with people who are on pre-paid cell phone plans they got at Walmart or a gas station, you'll see a high concentration of Android. Among people who are in technology or often purchase luxury goods, most your friends with have iPhones.

Is this downvoted by salty Android users, or actually disagreed upon?

Obviously it's a bell curve - not all Android users are cheap and not all iPhone users are luxary goods providers, but my experience (Australia) reflects this generalisation broadly.
