Comparing "iPhone" to "Android" in terms of sales and ownership is 
rather pointless anyway because there is only one iPhone maker and 
numerous Android makers (almost 1300 different phone brands!). Plus 
there are a ton of el cheapo Android phones, many of which are simply 
utter crap using old tech to achieve lower pricing.

If you compare actual makers, Apple has around 27.5% of the global 
market, while their closest rival Samsung has 21.5% ... but even that 
is misleading because Samsung do make el cheapo models (and foldable 
models) while Apple only makes high-mid to higher end models.

You may as well compare Toyota to Ferrari ... completely different 
markets and buyers.
