iPhone is the most popular phone on Flickr

Statistic published by Flickr reveals that most of the snapshots on their website have been taken and shared over the service using the iPhone. The handset seems to have outpaced other high-end cell phones like the Nokia N95 and digital cameras such as the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi and Nikon D80. As hard to believe as it is, there is a logical explanation here. First, all iPhone models count as one and the same device. Second, the Apple´s handset is incredibly functional when it comes to uploading content on Flickr directly. Given the unfaltering popularity of the iPhone in the US and the fact that most registered users are located there, the statistics seems credible indeed. It appears the option to instantaneously share snapshots taken with cell phones is more appealing than the other, i.e. waiting until later to publish professionally looking content captured with digital cameras. We just hope the next iPhone sports a better camera.
