The Gazelle survey asked 1,000 people who have used the service to trade-in an old device if they’d rather go without sex or iPhone for a weekend. 15 percent of people chose sex.
This isn’t the first time smartphone owners have admitted that they would give up sex over their beloved device. In a related survey conducted by another company, smartphones tied with intimate relationships as two things business professionals said that they couldn’t live without.
A spokesperson for Gazelle said that they were even more surprised at the number of people who said that they would choose their device over Facebook.
“When asked which device or platform they would not be able to live without, a majority (65 percent) chose iPhone, while only a few (one per cent) report not being able to do without Facebook,” the press release for the survey states.
The survey was open to Gazelle customers for about one week. A spokesperson for Gazelle told Mashable they wanted to make the survey available for iPhone owners because the questions related to that device.
Meanwhile, nearly 85 percent of respondents reported to having used their iPhone while in the bathroom.
