10% of Apple iPhone users will switch to the Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ says new U.K. survey
According to U.K. mobile phone insurance company insurance2go, 10% of the iPhone owners surveyed said that they would leave Apple to purchase the Samsung Galaxy S8 or Samsung Galaxy S8+. 36% of those avoiding the new Samsung models are doing so because they are scared that the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 battery issue will carry over to this year's flagship handsets. 38% are concerned that the new Samsung models are going to be too expensive.
The survey also revealed that 30% of LG users are switching to the Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+. Why? 78% are doing so because Sammy's new flagship models look better than the LG G6. 27% of HTC users are leaving for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+, and 69% cite looks as the reason why. 58% of Samsung owners plan on upgrading their handset, although the figures don't tell us how many of them are Galaxy S7/S7 edge owners who can't wait to upgrade to the new model.

"The iPhone has dominated the smartphone market for years, despite stiff competition from Samsung and other Android phones. However, more consumers are making the switch due to better specs, rather than what brand a phone is. Over the past few years, we’ve noticed a changing ratio of Apple - Android phones being insured, and this research just shows that actually, Apple might need to up its game to keep fans loyal."-Gary Beeston, Marketing Director, Insurance2Go
