Nielson Company U.S. Smartphone User Demographics Chart

The Nielson Company just released some statistics on smartphone user demographics in the U.S., and the results are rather surprising. Apple’s reputation is that it’s big with the “cool” crowd, but it seems that Google’s Android mobile operating system is winning just not overall marketshare (29% vs Apple’s 27%), but also winning in the younger age groups. Android is more popular with younger people (18-24), and Apple’s iPhone is more popular with older (55+). Just one more thing … get off my lawn!
