Deep dives
Ecosystem Lock-in and Familiarity
One reason why teens prefer Apple's iPhone is the ecosystem lock-in and familiarity it offers. Starting with iPads at a younger age, children and teens become accustomed to Apple's ecosystem, making it a natural choice for their first smartphone. The prevalence of Apple devices within families further reinforces this lock-in effect. To address this, Android manufacturers can focus on customization, offering more color options, personalized features, and unique design choices.
