How Much Do Men Love Their iPhones? New Survey Has Unbelievable Results

The new-and-improved iPhone 5c and 5s models are exciting consumers around the world, and a new survey by a money-saving website shows just how much people are obsessed with getting their hands on them.

SaleLand found that one in eight single men would prefer one of the new iPhones to a new girlfriend, but it goes even further than that for some of them.

A further 3 per cent of respondents to the survey said they would happily ditch their current love if they got the newest iPhone in return.

And its not just iPhones that could tempt men into singledom – 5 per cent of those asked would engineer a break-up in order to get a smartphone not made by Apple.

One man said: “I’ve been going out with the same girl for three years but if it meant getting may hands on a new iPhone she’d be dumped instantly. To be honest I’m getting a bit fed up with her anyway.”

Isn’t love grand?

So far, it is not clear just how many men around the world have been giving the opportunity to choose a new phone over a romantic partner, but one assumes anyone who has won’t be finding themselves a new love interest for quite a while.
