The comments section on this story is sure to turn into a flame war, but according to an online mental agility test, iPhone owners are more intelligent than Android users. Both smartphone consumer bases beat out Blackberry loyalists though, who came third in the survey.

The “Test of Wits was conducted by the British betting company, Ladbrokes. A thousand smartphone users took the multiple choice survey and iPhone users were able to complete the 7 trick questions in the quickest time possible: 94 seconds.

How do you think you will fare? Well here are some examples of the questions asked: “Some months have 30 days, some months have 31 days. How many months have 28 days?”. Some other questions are: “How many 9s are there between 1 and 100?”, and “How many legs do 2 dogs and 2 ducks have in total?”.

This isn’t the first time that smartphone users were pitted against one another. TalkTalk carried out a survey that was designed to take a look into the personalities of iPhone, Android, and Blackberry users. The results just confirmed pre-existing stereotypes.

Apple iPhone users were found to be the most arrogant and vain, ranking their personal appearance higher than others with different smartphones. Blackberry owners were found to earn the most money on average. What trophies did Android users walk away with? The most creative and most likely to get drunk.

Now argue away, but please try to do so in a civil manner.

This won't end well...
 
I have never owned am iPhone but I have owned 4 Android devices in a row. I wonder how I managed to finish my degree
 
Richer people tend to have a higher education than the average Joe. iPhone's are about 20x more expensive than the cheapest androids.

You don't need to be a fsken rocket scientist or researcher to figure that out. :rolleyes:

I look at 9 out of every 10 graduandi and wonder how they managed to do it.
 
I am going to take a stab here and guess this study comes down to education, same as the religion vs intelligence study. iPhones are very expensive, people who are wealthier and can afford them generally have a better education. Nothing really surprising here.

Was it completed correctly?
Was the participants aware this is a timed test? (I see it was)

All these BS surveys/test is beginning to irritate me. Easy to setup a test where you want a predetermined outcome and where nobody checks the methodology.

Thanks for the link.

hahahahahahah go try and do that "test", it basically comes down to who can click all of the options the fastest.
