    I’m sure the list of things that have not been cool with teenagers but somehow carved out a profitable market for themselves is a lot larger than this author thinks it is.

    But to play ball with the line of thinking, maybe the whole platform being so hit and miss when it comes to feature set, performance, price, ad infestation, etc has something to do with it. Cable TV isn’t cool with teenagers either, probably for much the same reasons.

    It also doesn’t help that most Android OEMs fall over themselves to follow Apple in a great many ways instead of trying to create their own path.

      Apple products advertise their features. Android phones, in my experience, specs. Teens don’t care about how much RAM their phone has. They also probably don’t want the half baked functionality Samsung throws in just to check a box.
