New research has revealed your phone can actually make you sexier. A survey by social dating community Zoosk.com shows 46 per cent of males and 63 per cent of females rate the Apple iPhone the sexiest model. Zoom’s research shows you are not so sexy if you have a Blackberry, while an old-school ‘Brick’ is the least attractive.

Lucky for those lugging around the old-school ‘Bricks’ or less stylish Blackberries, the survey assures that over 90 per cent of men and women couldn’t care less what kind of mobile phone their date has. Care would probably be given though to those respondents who confessed to using numerous apps mid-date including Facebook, Hangman and even AFL Dreamteam Sports. The only apps mentioned within reason were Urban Spoon for date location and Navigation to find your way there.

Men and women, however, unanimously agree that it is rude for a date to use their mobile phone during a rendezvous. In fact 37 per cent of women and 33 per cent of men have even left early because their date was too absorbed in the activities of their mobile phone. The worst mobile phone related offence a date can commit is constantly glancing at their phone and heaven forbid they even think about sending or checking their emails and text messages. Half the respondents wouldn’t mind their date answering a call but that is still a huge dating blunder.
