Just curious how everyone of you uses your smart phone here..
I have a Blackberry, bought it by its alluring features, a year ago. But to be honest, I mainly use it as a regular phone and some surfing and email checking. All other feature, either I have used once or twice when it was newly bought, or lot of other features I never even tried.
Besides, I am not that techno-honk. After initial craze all now remain is just another phone rather than a feature packed smartphone I was once tempted for.
may be your inputs can give me some insight to explore my device in further depths..

I don't think anyone can really use all the features of their smart phones, too many are provided. However, I mainly use my phone for text messaging, or a cell phone. I'll use the calandar once and a while and the coculator. But, more often then not those are basic fuctions of the smart phone in general. I'm not overly impressed by big name features.
I bet you wonder, based on my above statments, why I baught it in the first place.
Since smart phones like my recently purched highlite, are capable of doing so much, I tend to buy it for its durability. With it being completely a touch screen it has to be strong to withstand the smallest of uses. At least that's how I see it anyway.
I won't like the bill for the next three months, but I'll make it.

kaylachan, its very normal, as in most of the cases people forget or get bored of other features except what they cant avoid to use..
But durability has nothing to do with it, i guess.. as old phones (atleast from Nokia) with only basic functions were more durable than today's trendy phones..

I have a blackberry as well!
I love it, i literally use it as a computer and never go anywhere without it, a bit sad i know, but i dont use it 24/7 like most other people!
Most people dont need it such as young teens, but i am a business man, so i need to check emails on the go.
So yes i do use 100% of my phone but im not stuck to it outside of work!

i''ve never ever used all features of any mobile phone i have had. i might have used it once or checked what all features are in the phone but there has never been such a need to use all the features. i think majority users dont use all the features of a phone. most commonly used features are bluetooth, text message and calls

I use my mobile phone primarily for making and receiving calls. I have memory card with it, so i have loaded with latest songs which i hear whenever i am free. I play mobile games occasionally. If i am totally free, i used to go through the various features with it, e.g setting tones, display pictures and so on. My phone does not have any net facility. While going any trip, i used to take photos and video (but rarely i do this)

I do think any person can use complete functions of their own mobile. I am using my nokia N73 mobile. I used most of the functions. I have installed so many third party softwares in this mobile that even If I go with just opening one by one applications it will take more than a day for me. I have many softwares and games installed in it. But even I could say that nobody can use their mobiles all functions.
