  • There’s a decent chance it’s in the US. But it’s by no means a safe assumption that someone using an iPhone and writing in English is automatically in the US.

    With the other context I agree that it’s 99% likely to be the US. But the iPhone barely plays a role in that. Like I said, most iPhone users don’t live in the US. Most people arguing about 2 weeks notice in English with their boss probably do.

    I was just being a bit overly pedantic, is all.


  • So they’re at 27% market share globally (and are the most popular brand globally, though several trail closely). There are over 7 billion smartphone users in the world, so nearly 2 billion iPhone users. There are under 400 million Americans. Meaning if you pick a random iPhone user out of the 2 billion, there’s an 80% chance it’s not an American.

    In what universe does “iPhone user, therefore probably American” make sense?
