How smartphone users see each other, Android vs. BlackBerry vs. iPhone [COMIC]

What does the typical Android user look like? How are they seen by iPhone users? What do BlackBerry users think of iPhone users? Full comic after the jump.

I think this guy did a pretty good job and it gave me a laugh. What do you think? Is it accurate?

Blackberry = dinosaur is the best one.

I don’t see my self as “Einstein” though.

If I was to pick a stylized idea it would be that I think for myself and I don’t need someone like Steve Jobs dictating what I can do with my data on my phone…

Cartoon image = Braveheart? Montage from Orwell’s 1984?

P.S.

iPhone = Jersey shore kids and/or Paris Hilton

:P

  “If I was to pick a stylized idea it would be that I think for myself and I don’t need someone like Steve Jobs dictating what I can do with my data on my phone”
  
  I think they were implying that we (android users) think we’re smarter than the rest. if you weren’t intentionally trying to prove the cartoonists point, you just did. The 1984 reference does not help your case, either ;)
  
  I thought the cartoon was great for a laugh, and maybe something to consider next time I’m letting the things I own define me as better or worse than others. They’re just stupid smartphones, after all.

That’s funny and close to the truth. I do think myself as being smarter by picking android so its probably were the Einstein character comes in, Because I made a choice I didn’t follow the crowd.

I think only android users in the know would see iphone users like that, I tend to find them people who have jump on the latest fashion with no real reason why they have it other that they were told it was the best thing ever and at a time it was, I don’t think so now.

I was playing with my sisters blackberry yesterday and couldn’t believe how out of date it felt so the dinosaur again hit the nail on the head. The poor girl suddenly realised that my galaxy s (rooted and running fine) wasn’t a fair match. if it was a fight, the blackberry wouldn’t be allowed in the ring on humanitarian grounds :)

iPhone users are the Real Housewives from New Jersey.
Android users are on NCIS or How I Met Your Mother.
Blackberry users are on The Apprentice.
Symbian users are on radio.

      Prediction: you will end up broke and working dead end jobs because; despite your intelligence you lack sense as have many of the ‘great’ minds of the past.

  Has a minimum wage job, but scrounges up $N a month for a smart phone. If he worked in the business world, he’d throw out that low budget stuff and get the BB so he could “do emails”

I love this comic! I feel that the Einstein character is an Android user who is interested in the specs of their phone and the development of the OS. The other day I was talking to a friend of mine who has the original MyTouch, and I was telling him about the specs of the new MyTouch4G. He looked at me like I was speaking Latin! Lmao! Thanks to the Android and Me website and the mostly educated comments left here, I have become someone who looks at the “internal” workings of a phone and not just whether or not it is visually apealling!

WP7?

How the Blackberry is viewed is also a good sequential time frame of how the blackberry has been percived over roughly 15 years. Within 5 years, you can add a frame showing him as a fossil, because they will both only be welcome in a museum!

I love this! I’m not sure on the pizza guy part, though I guess it may be true for die hard BB fans. I would think that it would be more appropriate for them to view us as hippies or something though.

How the Android user looks to iPhone users is pretty spot on. Think Fogell in Superbad. Missing the smirk of Gawker trash, though.

  Android phones are more expensive than iphones. So if we can afford them we make a considerable amount of money. Plus our phone does not dictate our lifestyle, we do. No go back to your iphone and let stevey do it for you or go with the bb and send text in various ways

Yea, funny!
I’m still on BlackBerry, albeit the 9780, so at least it’s current. I did see a dude using an old Nextel Blackberry 7520 from about 2005. That was scary.

I’d love an Android, but I really love the way BBerry does email, and I do use BB Messenger.
When I’m in Europe, I find that BBM is still a hot messaging app.

Anyway, funny as hell! Thanks!
The Dinosaur Dude

Well, that’s kinda lame somehow. Well, all mobile OS has its own strengths and weaknesses. Let me Cite some.

Android- A good Open Source OS but bad somehow has bad appstore because Android Market is a United App store but splitly compatible from Other device depending on Specs.
iOS- A good Simple OS but bad somehow because of lack of personalization and freedom
BB- A good OS for Messaging but bad somehow because of lack of support of Apps
Windows- A good OS for file Syncs but bad somehow due to its lack of Simplicity
Symbian- An Almost All Around OS but bad somehow bad due to its lack of features
