What cellphone do you own and do you like it?

[Heroin Bob]

T-Mobile G1

I didn't like the mytouch, returned it and got my G1 back within a week. It feels too blackberry esque.

agreed, i used the mytouch for 2 days and went back to my G1, I love it

We are talking about cell phones not fucking laptops.......


I don't understand why anyone would WANT a phone the size of a fucking brick when the whole point for a phone is to be able to call, text, and occasionally play a stupid little game while you are taking a shit and don't have a newspaper near.


There is no reason to have a phone for anything else really. I just don't understand the need for it, and I don't understand why you would want a phone that is so awkward to talk on. I like flip phones so much better, because they actually conform to your ear and mouth. Iphones and things like that don't do that, and just don't work as well as an actual PHONE (meaning making phone calls) than a normal plain flip phone.

Blackberrys are ok to text if you like the retardedly small keyboard buttons that are too close together where you mistype everything, but they are horrible when you want to use the phone as an actual phone.


Do you honestly need to be watching youtube videos on your cell phone enough to warrant the HUGE charges you have to pay a month? I don't understand it really. I pay like $80 a month for 1500 minutes, free incoming, free unlimited texts and unlimited internet. You pay like $150 a month to have an Ipod touch converted into a phone, and frankly I hate my Ipod touch compared to the old 30 gb regular Ipods. If my old one never fell into a pool of water, I would never have gotten rid of it for the piece of shit 8 GB Ipod touch. I also hate the nanos too.. they are useless and too small to see shit on the screen. I got the Ipod Touch for christmas one year, which is why I haven't gone the route of the old Ipod. I dunno... maybe I'm venting.... but I don't see any reason to have a blackberry type phone. They are uncomfortable as fuck to talk on, and they aren't exactly slim.

i pay 80 a month for 500 min (unlim nights / weekends) unlim text / data. I dont have a huge bill at all, its actually the same as yours, and yes, i like watching retarded youtube videos while i shit, not just playing tetris from 19 dickety two. and yes, i can mobile bank and multi task on my phone, as well as my laptop, but last i checked my laptop didn't fit in my pocket.

puh-fail. (then again, im not an iphail user, open source4lyfe)

[Displaced]

I've got some nokia 6500 slide atm, its a decent phone, just has some errors...

waiting on my Iphone 3gs to arrive..

also, i cant STAND people who talk about how great their cameraphone is, not one single cameraphone has even DECENT image quality, i dont give a rats ass about how many gigapixels the sensor has, the lens is a 8x8mm piece of plastic, i.e. shit pictures...

one samsung user even claimed his omnia takes better pics than a professional DSLR.. yeah... 40cm long glass lens, vs 2mm long plastic piece of shit..

[Galleleo]

My camera phone has more than decent quality images, not as good as my mom's Canon EOS camera, but better than my finepix digital camera.

[Displaced]

sample image from your samsung ultra touch:



grainy and horrible, you can do better than that with your finepix (unless you are shooting in the middle of the night with no extra lightsource)

and with a dslr?

[Galleleo]

I have taken way better quality pictures with my Samsung than that example you just gave, and way better quality than the finepix cam I got, which is just shitty compared to my phone.

Again, I ain't saying it comes close to the Canon EOS we got or anything, but it is more than decent.

[404 Not Found]

Honestly I could care less about a camera and the picture it takes noting the quality. I am much more concerned with having reception (5 bars) and no dropped calls.

If I wanted to take a serious pic, I would use my Pentax K20D...or most any SLR camera.

I dunno though...I think Displaced's pics are pretty damn good for a camera phone and the content of which was taken.

[the_paul]

I've taken like 20 pictures on my iphone maybe in the time I've had it. To be honest I don't really give a shit how good the camera is on a phone I'm looking at, that doesn't even come into consideration for me.

Yeah Bio, go to settings -> general -> network, and the enable 3g should have a toggle on/off. I don't have a 3gs though so the way to get there may be different, as well as the difference you notice.

[Mr. 420]

I have an HTC XV6800

I like it more than my old LG enV.

[Mr. Peanuts]

I don't know how to jailbreak my 3gs :'-(

also will I be able to reset it to factory conditions afterwards if I need to get the phone serviced under warranty?

Yeah you will be, factory reset in iTunes will restore the firmware so there's no trace of it. I wrote a guide to doing it in Jason's iPhone unlocking thread if you want to give it a shot. You just don't have to do the unlocking part of it. Done it on 3G S including all other iPhones, works brilliantly.

[Xog]

I have a Samsung Behold T-919


it sucks ass , i want an iphone..

sweet I'll try this later tonight thx

[Squeezer]

I just got this bad boy about a week ago. I've been trying to run out the battery like you're supposed to do when you get a new phone, but the fucker wont die. It's currently day 9 and I still have one bar of battery left still. It's not like I haven't been using the phone either. I've had multiple conversations and been texting people the whole time.

edit: oh and it's the Motorola Rival A455. I upgraded for free because I'd kept my Razr for over 4 years.

The two phones i am looking at are

I like the smart phone cause you can get medicine conversion apps, medical dictionary apps, and all sorts of usefull things.

Exalt you just can't find a reason to justify getting one. Not everyone is like you.

have a nice day.

[Fit of Rage]

Hilariously old (over 4 years) Sony Ericsson z500a. I'm long overdue for a new phone. The one thing I will say is that it's durable, it survived a stint through my washer and dryer and it still works.
