I dont change my handset frequently.infact not changed since i have bought because its still very good. In many people i have noticed, they change their handsets very often as and when new model comes to market? SO dear mylotters how many of you change hand sets frquently and usually after how much period?

I have changed my first handset in 7 months. Its been 9 months now with my second handset and iam already thinkin of buying a third one. Its not that i get bored very easily with one handset. Its mainly due to the fact how expensive the mobile is and how much i can afford with great features in it.

Mobile phones nowadays is a fashion, an equipment for entertainment and to some 20% of real use. Everyone who think this way today changes mobile phones on every 1-2 months with latest models. But the person who actually uses mobile hardly change it. I am using just my 3rd one, first one was a basic motorola which had very low ringtones hard to hear in public I changed, second one sony erricson got broken and now nokia 3310 working fine no probs no need to change at all.

Normally I change my handset after 1.5 to 2 years as the telcom company provide a good discount for handset when you upgrade with a 2 year contract. steveniam http://www.tipsforfastweightloss.com

I try to keep my handset updated. I try to buy new mobile when some new model comes to market and I like the model. I prefer the Nokia mobiles over other brands.

The mobile I own currently is my second one. I got both the first one and the second as a gift from DH for my birthdays. I dont change my phone quite often. Many people like to be updated with the latest models, and I have friends who change models every 6th month. They dont mind, even if the mobile they previously own is taken for low cost.

Well, I have the same mobile phone since the last few years so I can say I don't change them almost at all. I use it only for calling so I don't see any reason to change it if it still works. Cheers.

when i was in college, i frequently change hand set but now that im working, i only stick to my mobile phone because i realized its just a waste of money. Why? you buy the latest model and then after a month a new model will be released. and you would be like, i shouldnt have bought that phone..
