Most popular in the middle of 2012 was the iPhone 4S. Not sure what it is now.

True. Theres no doubt the iPhone had it very good for a long time but I think the North Americans should give a chance to the competition too. Samsung is now also running its profits in billions. I hope someone else comes along soon to gives them too a hard time. Unfortunately Blackberry failed.

Why not just get the one you like? What difference does it make what others are using?

I wasn't stating a preference or disputing the competition. I was merely answering a question that seemed incorrectly answered.

The Iphone is ubiquitous where I live. When I ask people why the Iphone they simply look at me as if I am stupid. As posters on here will know, I am not up to date on the latest gadgets and I really don't care a jot about such things. I have used HTCs and Samsungs in the past and I use a Samsung now. My children and my OH use Iphones.

Mine have done and do what I require of them. From the lack of complaints made, I can only assume that the rest of my family's phones do so too.

I'm with you here. By all means people should use an iPhone if it's what they want, or it has features they need, but to just choose one because everyone else has one puzzles me.
When this debate crops up, I always like to watch this youtube video, it makes me laugh (watch out for strong language though, I'm afraid) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL7yD-0pqZg

Isn't the point of Apple products that they have no point unless other people can see you using them?

Not really.

Although IMHO the best product they have made is the Apple TV. I get a lot of use out of it out of all of the Apple products.
