I haven’t upgraded to the new iPhone 6 (yet) – have you? Take a look at how Apple’s iPhone has affected the smartphone market in this infographic from AYTM Research:
With the recent announcement and subsequent release of the iPhone 5, we surveyed 600 American consumers to gather some insights into the current smartphone market.

- Current Android owners are 2.4x more likely to switch to an iPhone than vice versa
