Does anyone else find themselves having to have the latest cell phones on the market or have a spouse/significant other that has a compulsive disorder to continually need to have the latest phone on the market? How do you handle the situation? My husband is driving me CRAZY!

I am not into the high-tech innovations of the new cell phones, and pretty much go with the best "free" option when signing up for a new plan. I think I save a lot of money this way, and don't feel as guilty if I end up damaging said phone. I have yet to encounter a friend who was addicted, though I will let you know when my fiance's plan comes up for renewal!

Sounds like a very logical plan! I usually change when mine breaks or the renewal is up. I hear that he wants a new phone just about weekly! LOL!

Nope. Not me. I keep a phone until it breaks. I couldn't care less about the latest thing.

Me too! I hate having to learn where all the buttons are on a new phone. They are all different, even if same brand. I had to get a new one just 3 months ago, when we changed service. My old phone did not have 5G service capability. I am finally just now getting used to it.

@porwest It's bad. One of my brother in laws can't do hardly anything on his cell phone. My hubby hooked him up with some music that he can access on his cell phone. He thought that was so neat! He's in his 70's so can't blame him on the technology end.
