If I say buy an Apple iPhone and its very likely they turn up with an iPhone maybe not the one I told them but a new Apple iPhone.
But if I say Samsung Android, they are just as likely to buy some weird no-name Android because it was a color they wanted or size or something the salesman pushed on them cause "Android is Android right?"
Can confirm this is definitely a thing. Though in my case has to do with PC's. My mother needed a new computer and when searching online for a windows laptop, she always ended up looking at the cheapest garbage on sale. Im talking laptops that cost half as much as her iphone. But tell her to look for a mac and she will have to start looking at more expensive devices that won't be e-waste in 2 years. Pretty bizarre.
