♥ What Kind Of Cellphone Do You Have & Why Do You Like it? ♥

Are you talking type of phone

Are you talking type of phone or cell phone service provider?

Picture this:

Verizon store.  Upgrade eligible.  Need for more than just a phone, so a smart phone.

 

Old woman.  Disposable income.

 

Samsung Galaxy S4.....16GB memory on board.  Quad core processor.  INCREDIBLE camera....both front and back.....

 

SOOOOOO....yes, I do love it!!!  BUT they DID 'see me coming'!

I am on my second droid. 

I am on my second droid.  Love em.  I bought Katherine an iphone for Christmas and she misses her droid.  The swift key app has never been replicated by the iphone and it takes so much longer to text (no intuitive texting with memory). 

My hubbie loves his iphone because, even though there is no swift key app, it has many other apps he likes and he really likes the camera.  We liked the iphone Disney World apps the best when we were in DW.

The swift key app will work on any android phone and I hear great things about the Samsung phones too.  Something about the hardware on the iphone makes it incompatible.

My sister bought a microsoft phone, but it has almost no apps.  I wouldn't recommend it.

I hate to sound dumb, but, what is a swift key app Cynthia?  I also have a dumb phone as I don't really need anything else, but, I admit that I am tempted to get a smart phone too.  I was thinking of the Iphone, but, you make the droid sound a lot better.

GALAxY 3 AND LOVE IT...I JUST

GALAxY 3 AND LOVE IT...I JUST UPGRADED FROM 2 only due to needed a new battery and went to 7 stores ...no one sells them-i was told phones die prior to batteries...

 

I GOT IT mainly for LARGE screen for my 54 yr old eyes...camera is great. I am sure it has many features I have not stumbled upon yet..

Sprint is our carrier-we get 20% discount since I work at a school. MOST carriers dont' advertise but they do give misc disctounts...JUST ASK...

dumb phone

I have a dumb phone and i love it. Because although I am only 35 I was never into talking on the phone or texting. I like to be left alone and having a "dumb phone" is a reason for it.

I have a dumb phone too.  I

I have a dumb phone too.  I don't text and I rarely use it.  I use our land line for phone calls.

Cynthia?  There are several

Cynthia?  There are several Droid phones, the Droid Maxx, Droid Maxx with black bundle and others.  Which one do you have? 

Kathi and Denise, you both have the Samsung Galaxy s4?

My carrier is Verizon Wireless and I've never had a problem with them.  I will go to a store to check out the new phones.  Just wanting to know what you all like and have as it is confusing.  Well, to me it is.  lol

Thanks!

Denise has the 3....I the 4.....

The Galaxy 4 is bigger....but I don't mind....always loosing a smaller one in my purse.....also, don't have to 'open' the screen to see it....(sorry...don't know the real word...I AM almost 60, after all...*grin*).

I am with Verizon, also.  I went in, and they told me and showed me the differences....the Galaxy 4 has feedback of less battery life...BUT I make sure all of my apps are closed (they can show you how), so I have had no trouble with it....and you can always buy an inexpensive charger over the internet as backup if you are not near a car charger or at home near a plug.  I just plug mine in each night....

Also, the 4 has 'quad core' processor...so it's faster than the 3.  And, the camera on the 4 is sharper, from what the ratings say....I can even take a picture into the sun, with clarity....

The nice thing about the 4 (and I belive the 3 also) is that Verizon has gone into partnership with Vodaphone...an International cell provider...the new '4G' will allow my phone to work internationally, as long as I notify Vodaphone and Verizon (upgrade the sim...it's different in the rest of the world...*smile*)....excellent for me, when I start traveling again....

I also have Verizon because

I also have Verizon because coverage around here is spotty with other carriers.  I don't have a brand new Droid (I think I bought it last Sept); it is a Droid Razr Maxx.  I am not sure that it is even made anymore, but it is not one of the bigger models.  I had a larger Droid before and didn't like that model as well because the phone that wouldn't fit in my pocket.

That is a personal preference and I know the larger ones come with more bells and whistles :-).

Part of why I like the Droid is that I am familiar with it and I don't like change...Lol.  My daughter's friend has the Samsung Galaxy and loves it.  She has also had an iphone and a droid--she loves the latest and greatest phones ;-).

So, does she then hold 2 conversations at once....

....one on each phone, on each ear????

 

Or is it a 'conference call' thing???? *grin*....sorry, rare mood today....*grin*

 

(Do I share that I can have conversations without a phone...with myself?????  Or will everyone think I'm over the edge....hummmm)
