It's really silly to argue that something with >50% market share (in the US at least) is a status symbol...

Maybe the top end models, but definitely not in general.

Have you heard of the women who would not date men using an Android phone, as well as the kids being pressured or excluded? In some social circles Apple devices are definitely status symbols.

Women don't date homeless men either. That doesn't make having a roof over your head a status symbol.
