What do you prefer to use on your mobile phone? Text or call? I find it easier to call someone that text and wait for a reply. And I also have a hard time texting that's why I prefer calling especially if it's urgent. What about you? What do you find easier?

It's much easier to call than to text. Texting seems really impersonal too. I really don't like to text unless I am in a situation where I can't talk, like class, ha.

i use my phone mainly for texting since its cheaper that calling, and ussually i dont need an urgent reply so its okay if i wait a little. but if its urgent or somewhat very important then i wont hesitate to call.

If I have a lot to say to somebody, I will phone them, but usually by landline as my mobile phone is on PAYG. And because it's cheaper to text, I will text smaller messages. In an emergency though, I will phone :-)

I prefer to call when it is very important and urgent matter that the person would immediately receive my message, and when there is no available payphone or landline around it's good that I have my mobile phone just handy. I send sms when a situation calls for it and it is no longer necessary for me to call.

I like texting better. Im not much of a phone person anyway. Usually I will call people like my parents or older people that do not use texting too much. But with my friends we all text message.

My younger sisters like texting her friends and classmates too! She just receives a lot message everyday. But when you work it's more convenient to call than spend time texting.

if i got lots of load i rather call than text...its easier to talk that to type each letter for you message...sometimes your message comes late,than you expected, you already meet the person that you've text but the message hasn't arrived yet ;P...that happens sometimes...hehehe...that why if it urgent ill rather call even its expensive...its all worth it...
