I have a good old LG flip phone and its on its 6th year of working (knock on wood) and i use a prepay verizon calling plan for 30 bucks a month, I have a short address book with most numbers being stores I do business with, I started in the computer world and got burnt out and didn't touch them for years and had a land line.  I'd think about a smart phone, but holy they cost so much to get one and regret it.

I love my iPhone. It's not only good for personal use and entertainment but it allows me to earn more on survey sites.

It saves me money because I use it as a camera, music player and fitness tracker. One device for many uses saves money plus I have money saving apps downloaded

No i don't have one my son has one it costs him about 40.00 a month. I'd like one but only to make money with. You can do ibotta,check out 51 and a few others that pay you like a rebate.Still the cost of the phone is probably to much.

I have an iPhone7plus since a few weeks.... this one was soo expensive that I would have never considered it.
But I got it with no down payment at all and a decent monthly rate.... so that is fine.

To be honest, I would not be able to be without a smartphone anymore... it has too many things, utilities and apps I use every day.

I think I will get one someday but right now I really don't need one. I just have a basic cell phone.

We'll be eligible to upgrade to an iPhone 7 next month. I have the 6 right now and I really like it. Good picture and lots of room for apps and pictures.

Yes, upgraded two years ago from the flip phone.  I mostly play games on it and talking to it instead of typing is also nice.

I own a few smartphones but they are the cheap ones that work with tracfone. Each time I get one it seems they discontinue and then the next one is better. Right now I have an Alcatel that does all I need it to do. I refuse to invest in an expensive phone seeing how I cannot get a signal from where I live. I can usually pick up a signal strong enough to make or receive calls in the nest town over about 30 minutes away. I do all my shopping there and just have the phone for emergencies and all the fun apps that I can run off my home Wi-Fi.

I never wanted or thought I would need or use an iPhone.  But everyone talked me into getting one a few years ago, and I could kick myself for waiting so long, I love it.  There are so many different things you can use it beside calling and receiving phone calls.  I would never give it up.
