To be frank,I don't want to use an unfashionable cellphone.When you pick cellphone out,others would take a look at yours.It is not wise to take a unfashionable cellphone.I have to confess that unfashionable has its advantage,that is ,cheap and no need to be afraid of stealing.lol

I use the same cell phone that I've had for about 2 years now. It takes pics, emails, and all the stuff that is "hip", so an old fashioned phone is fine. I've never even spent more than $40.00 for one phone. So even saving money one the cheaper phones is smart in todays economy.

I also don't like use "unfashionable" cellular, but I'm also not care it. Actually my phone is alway neither so fashionable nor so unfashionable. I think that okay for my because it doesn't cost me too much. And also it's safter. You know, if my cellular were stolen (of course, I hope it never happen), it would be more acceptable for unfashionable one cost lower. In another word, for theives, unfashionable cellular means unpopular. So it's safter generally speaking.

I don't *LIKE* using an unfashionable cellphone, but I don't mind it. If my phone goes out of style I'm not immediately going to go run out and buy a newer one if it's still working. But it doesn't mean that I *like* being untrendy. I'd love to buy an iPhone, but lets face it...they're more than a tad pricey and with the economic downturn, I really can't afford it...so I stick to my old phone. Which, if you look at it objectively, is actually pretty good. I mean, it has a camera, MMS-ing, internet access and some games too!

I don't like to use a normal cellphone which doesn't have many features. I have a smartphone now and this is the kind of cellphone I like. I don't think it's only a cellphone. It gives me lots of entertainment and I love it. Therefore, I can't stand to use the simple cellphone any more. I love China

Well my phone has already been with me almost 4 years and it is originally my sister's phone. It's Nokia 6600, so I still can take pictures with 65 k VGA camera, can browse (though I am not activating my internet connection, so I cannot browse anything through my cellphone), and can play games although it must be installed in external memory. It's on poor condition right now cause the scroll button is broken and it cannot ring when I receive SMS, so I'm thinking to switch to Blackberry Bold or Javelin by end of this year...

Unfortunately, I love phones that do different things and that look fun or pretty cool such as touch phone, etc. I would love to be someone like you who is just fine with the phone and it's functions that I've had for 5 years and still be pleased. I'm need to be entertained by having my personal functions (such as email, photos, video uploads, etc) in my hand at all times. It's funny to me, because I'm not a picky or needy person :( Thumbs up to you for staying cool!

My last mobile phone I had managed to last me about 1.5 years, they seem to be making the phones alot smaller and slimmer compared to when they first released mobile phones. I think just day to day wear and tear is what killed my last phone. My current phone is a beast of a phone and was rather expensive so therefore I treat it with respect and it has a cushioned case and I am very gentle with it to keep it in tack for longer.

Gadgets are my weakness which includes cellphone, laptop, camera, etc. I always swap my cell phone for a newer model or with a better feature mobile.

As long as it does what I need it to do, I don't really care what it looks like or how fashionable or unfashionable it is... Because of my work, I had to change phone model few times this year & right now, I have motorola krzr k1... It's an older model but it does everything I need it to do... Up until about a month ago, I had blackberry pearl 8120 but since my work is picking up a tab for my laptop, wireless internet, I don't need it anymore so instead of having to pay for data plan on blackbery phone, I switched to regular flip phone... It takes pictures, sends & reives pictures, make calls & I can send & receive text messages... That's it, I really don't need it to do anything more than that... So I guess I like using unfashionable phones...

I agree with you. I have got my cell since 2006 and it`s not important for me to buy another new one, because I can do all the same as If I`d have a new model.I love it .I don`t mind where I put it ,I know nobody will take it out,and the other reason is that expensive cells are a temptation for thieves.

If the phone has all the basic features that i would want from it, i would not mind using an old cellphone.
