Title: What phone do you have and what made you get it?
Post by: john on January 17, 2013, 05:14:25 PM
Well answer the question...

I have an iphone 4s, i got it because it was only 100 dollars and because i don't like the size of the 5.

I have an Iphone 4s, bought it because I never had previously owned any other iphone and it was the newest at the time. I would get the 5 if I found a bit of extra money, but it is not that big of deal.

I bought the iPhone 4S through Sprint last summer because I was with AT&T with an iPhone 3GS and got tired of their service and that they eliminated their unlimited data plans.  Sprint's not perfect, but they're also the last carrier left in the country that doesn't limit or restrict their data plans.

The only reason Iphones (and other phones) seem cheaper in the US is because them of being associated with contracts (usually 2yr long ones). The phone plan that a person is made to have, over an extended contract period, makes up for the phone's cost many times over.
The true cost of a phone,in this case, is the value of a new unlocked handset.

At all other places that I have been to, you usually
Pardon the rant. I digress.

Anywho, I own a Nokia N8. The reason I bought it is because it had the best camera out of any phone on the market at the time, and continued to be for a while. (12MP, Carl Zeiss Lens)

Currently wishing I could own

Looking back at this post, I see that this as been quite the rant,so, once again, forgive the long read.

An old Samsung Smooth flip phone. Not too modern, but it works.

I want the iPhone 5.

However right now I'm rocking stock Android on the Google Nexus S. It was a phone sent from the gods above before the new OS updates ruined it. Now it's a laggy sack of shit straight from the anus of Satan himself.
