I bet most people can name 6 or do.

But that's about it.

For most people in the US at least they can only identify iPhone or non-iPhone.

I just asked my iphone-hqving mom who knows nothing about tech and she named 5.

I mean, anyone who has a "non-iohone" would be able to at least name the non-iohone(s) they have had. Including phone brands from before iphones that they may guess are still around.
