          As someone who is American, most people don't know their phone model because they just want a good smartphone that just works, that's it.

          The majority of Americans that own iPhones like them because they simply... work. They're not tech nerds that care about the fancy new A12 Bionic processor, they're ordinary people! It's not because they're dumb, they just don't know/care. Besides, they have other things to do in life than care about their phone name. You don't remember what company installed the tile in your bathroom, do you? So why would they need to care about their smartphone name???

              [deleted post]I'm not American, but Trump was the better option. Also unemployment has gone down since he became president. How exactly have they done badly?

                  Of course, except Sony and HTC ( that has one notched only) all other have same front design with notch or hole.
                  People no longer know the brand they bought.

                    This shows why iphones are so popular there. They just don't know any better. Literally not even able to tell what iPhone they are using

                      It's unfair to single out the fact they're American. It's more to do with the fact they chose to buy an iPhone or Samsung that highlights their lack of intelligence.

                          They don't know whether their phones are 5g or not??At least I know that my nokia 3310 is 5g capable

                            I guess the brainwashing of the marketing works. They even thought they have 5G

                              Now that every month im passing thru murica for a while I can confirm this, wanted to help a few people with broken screens, they didnt even knew what kind of crapple do they have.

                                Just shows you how unimportant these gadgets are to Americans. They just want it to work and get out of the way of other more important things in life.

                                  Goodness. How are they even getting their phones? Do they just walk in store and say "gimme a phone"? Because if you don't even know the model you bought...
