I don't see how that's a horrible comparison. iPhones are the BMWs in this example. iPhones are a luxury product. Androids are utilitarian.
Most people who own Android phones own lower-end phones. Compared to iPhones, the everyday person with an Android is definitely driving a Toyota compared to a BMW.
Do you think 90% of people with Androids are walking around with Galaxy S23 Ultras or Pixel 8 Pros? No, those are a small minority. This example works pretty well.
Nah, the iPhone is a Toyota Corolla. Reliable, good resale value, not a lot of bells and whistles, kind of boring, but it gets you around town. The Pro is a Lexus. Samsung is a Honda Civic, cause people like to customize it, but the base model is still reliable. The Pixel is a VW Golf: a bit quirky but fun.
Most people are Android "fanboys" aren't owning the lower tier phones. They're going to have the $1000+ phones
