A study of iPhone owners and Android owners found that depending on which phone you prefer can say a lot about your personality.

Do you prefer the iPhone?

According to new research, iPhone users are generally happier, more extroverted, more adventurous, and tend to make more money than Android users. The new research also found out a lot about each phone owner's spending habits. They found that iPhone users will shell out on average $117 per month on clothes. That's nearly DOUBLE what an Android user was found to spend. The same goes for beauty products. The iPhone crowd spends $83 monthly on such products which again is nearly DOUBLE what an Android user was found spending on the same products.

iPhone users were also found to be vainer. An average of 12 selfies a day, which is 5 more than what Android users take. Furthermore, iPhone users are more than twice as likely to report that they like being the center of attention.

This should come to no surprise that each MRL member has an iPhone. The study doesn't stop there...it dives a lot deeper into personality traits and all of us here agree with the research!
