Re: "Only 15 per cent of iPhone 6 customers have upgraded from other iPhones."
I ditched yet another Android phone for a used iPhone 4s and so far am pleased with overall experience.
Every Android device I've had so far (3 tablets and 4 phones) had been plagued with slowdowns, memory issues, and hardware failures. I still think the OS as an idea has a great potential, but the software implementation is often half baked and in an effort to stick as much as possible into the phone at the least possible cost the corners get cut in the process.
My 4s is about three years old, looks and functions like new, has far better memory management than my Android phones, so far no rogue apps slowing everything down, no unexplained sudden Bluetooth issues that appear out of nowhere and disappear a week later, Siri voice recognition seems more consistent than Google Now (although this may be simply due to a better Bluetooth connection with this phone), and with iOS 7.1.2 it's pretty fast as well.
I'd love to stick with Android but it's been a lottery so far, and I feel I've mainly been losing. Google's own Nexus 7 tablet would first slow to a an unusable crawl with Android 4.2, then just as they fixed this in subsequent release, they've introduced the slow charging bug.
