What cell phone do use?

Unfortunately (maybe) with my old eyes I can not do to much with a 2" screen on my cellphone. I just use it mainly for calls and sms. I am usually on line about 10 or so hours daily and need my laptop and secondary monitor. The secondary monitor is really an asset for me as when I doing research for an article it saves hours.

 

Being on a fixed income I go the pay as you go route. Here in Thailand is not very expensive and I don't use my phones that much anyway. I have an Iphone clone and a standard, ordinary celphone that is my "old faithful".

 

I have an iphone 4

 

I've been using the iPhone for the longest time but I'm getting to switch to an Android or a Windows 8 phone. Android seems to be a better choice but I'm seriously tempted to get a Lumia

 

I have a Blackberry, but it is turned off. I guess that means that I don't have a cell phone. It's very freeing not to have that electronic leash on all the time. I have to get my phone turned back on though, the other day I was out and about and needed to use a phone and didn't have one to use .

 

I a

I am very connected to my phone, so I can see where this would be nice!!!

 

I understand what you mean when you say that you are connected to your phone, because when my cell is on, I am like that. The Internet can be like a drug . And of course there are always people are texting and calling.
If they don't get a reply back, especially from a text, my friends start having a small fit . "Why aren't you answering your phone?" "Why aren't you texting me back?"
They even leave me mean (playfully mean, but mean just the same) texts. I'm famous for not answering my phone because sometimes it gets to be a bit much. I have to turn my phone back on though, but the 'time off' has been nice.

 

I could not agree more. For me the phone is a tool I use when necessary ie. emergencies or a specific business purpose. I also use it to communicate briefly with friends ie. arrangements to meet somewhere as opposed to running out my minutes just chatting. On a fixed income saving $$$"s is a must.

 

Yes, the constant contact can be irritating! Sometimes I will put m y phone on the charger and walk away.

 

Right now I am using a android phone and I think it works great. But I really want to buy a iphone.

 

I didn't realize they still make blackberries

 

Lol, you sound like me. I hardly know about any type of new phone/tablet/pc/technology/whatever. It is just not something that I stay on top of...and I live practically right on top of Silicon Valley.
If it wasn't for my teenage son, I would not know 1/2 of what I know about new phones and any other new stuff that comes out. I still use a VCR.

 

I have a Galaxy S3. I don't want to pay almost 800 for a phone that's exactly the same as the last one (Iphone 5)

 

Blackberry Curve here too and I will be buying the upcoming BB10, the keyboard feature that learns how I type looks great. I see Blackberry making a comeback with this latest model and am encouraged to see Iphone sales are falling and Samsung sales increasing too, the market is ripe for a BB comeback. I might even buy shared in the company

 

An apple Iphone 4 for the time being, but I'm looking forward to getting the new flexible design Samsung! They look brilliant!

Steven has a wicked cool accent when he talks, lol.

That device is slick @ 7:47, I'll hold out for one of those!

The only major turnoff to technology I have left is their insistence on using tracking and personal information aggregation techniques to keep tabs on me. Just no!
