Funny comic reveals what your smartphone says about you

Funny comic reveals what your smartphone says about you

We were a little hesitant to post this, as it just might set off a fanboy world war, but it's just too funny to resist. While these images are obviously sweeping generalizations, we definitely felt like there were grains of truth.

C-Section Comics, which publishes this and other assorted hilarity, has taken an impressively impartial approach. While the comic is funny, we're most impressed by the fact that no one OS really got the brunt of the criticism. But fanboys of each category will obviously disagree.

A couple questions: Is the iPhone user (in the eyes of Android users) a witch? Or is she a member of a Steve Jobs cult? Either way, ouch. And what about the Android user (in the eyes of BlackBerry users); is the pizza delivery boy a reference to age, or socioeconomic status?

Feel free to fight it out in the comments below!

Yep, saw this on GSMArena around the fall of last year. Still holds up. All my friends who had Razrs (i had a 2g iPhone,then a 3G) when we started class 4 years ago had iPhone 4s at graduation, and all the guys in the office where I work have Blackberrys. For me, I9000M SGS in a gingerbread custom rom make both the other choices seem a little archaic.

It mighta been all question marks...lol For the old Win Mo or WP7. I would love to see this updated with WP7 tho. But what could it say? Maybe we all need to brainstorm on a WP7 one to fit in there.

It's funny cause it's true. All three of them are great phones in there own right. The users however that's a different story.

First, this comic is funny, hilarious even. I still laugh at it. I've known about it for a while.

lol. Really funny. There is an another one where there is a Windows Phone 7 user and all the rest of OS users are consoling her like 'Yes don't worry. We all take wrong decisions at times'.

This comic is awesome - though very old. Things changed since then. Android is the new smartphone "coolness", BB is on the verge of death (where arguably Nokia is), and the iPhone? Well - it's still regarded by many as the hottest thing to have. I think that most Android users nowadays see iPhoners not as Sith-spreaders but rather more like blind people.. poor souls who used to have old Nokias and were so blinded by the ability to have apps on their phones that they completely disregarded the possibility of personalization and customization which is an integral part of one's digital self.
