Study Reveals Nearly All Teenagers in the US Own an iPhone.

Posted on 10 April 2025

A recent study highlights the dominance of iPhone ownership among US teenagers. Conducted by Piper Sandler, the research involved 6,455 teens with an average age of 16.2 years and a household income of approximately $65,995.

Remarkably, about 88% of the participants reported owning an iPhone, indicating a strong preference for Apple devices among the younger demographic. The study also delves into social media habits.

Instagram emerged as the most popular platform, with around 87% of teens using it monthly. Following closely were TikTok and Snapchat, with 79% and 72% of respondents, respectively.

In contrast, only 31% reported watching Netflix, and just 26% used YouTube. These findings are particularly significant considering the current uncertainties in the smartphone market, triggered by tariff fluctuations.

President Trump’s administration has recently implemented a 90-day pause on tariffs impacting various countries. However, China is notably excluded, with tariffs raised to 125% immediately.

This situation raises questions about future iPhone pricing and whether teens may need to consider more budget-friendly options, such as the anticipated iPhone 16e. The economic landscape could influence purchasing decisions among teens, especially as they eye upcoming releases, like the iPhone 17, with 25% of those surveyed expressing an intention to upgrade.

Piper Sandler has been tracking teen spending and preferences since 2001, amassing over 64 million data points and highlighting the strong trend of premium smartphone ownership among the youth. With the current market dynamics, it remains to be seen how these developments will shape the future of smartphone ownership and consumer behavior among teenagers in the United States.
