Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I've been sticking with my little flip phone. I can stick it into the watch pocket in my jeans and I don't have to worry about it or carrying it around or putting it down and forgetting it..

I'm sticking to it! If you ever decide to upgrade, Samsung has unveiled it's new folding phone, the Samsung Galaxy Fold. Some consider it the Millennial, Gen-X flip phone. Personally, I will be keeping my current phone for several more years. Forgot to mention the price: $1,980.00! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago, when they were getting smaller, I predicted that by now they would be implanting them into our ears. Boy was I wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MizPete Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I was perfectly happy with my flip phone. But then Jill B Quick got an upgrade so, so did I. The camera is nice. And the GPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Kit, that dude is carrying a TV. I love my smart phone. I could live without it but I wouldn’t want to. About 4 years ago I tossed my Android and went back to a flip phone. It was a mistake from the start. I went about 8 months and that was enough. I got an iPhone and haven’t looked back. I now have an iPhone XS Max. I use it all the time for a variety of things. I rarely use my Chromebook and never use my PC any more. I use my phone to: Access the Wire and other forums. Surf and search the web. Take photos and videos. Navigate. Watch Netflix Make notes and lists. Do calculations. Listen to music on my bike. Take incoming calls on my bike. Email Do measurements - yep, there’s an app Do Apple Pay when I don’t have cash. Buy Starbucks coffee with their app Use the calendar It’s my alarm clock I have a bunch of fun apps to play with. I love my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G W Wade Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Hated to quit using my old phone, but the new smart phone Bluetooth"s to my hearing aid s. Absolutely wonderful GW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixgun Sheridan Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I do agree that it's handy to have a camera with you wherever you go. The other stuff (calculator, etc) is handy at times but not something I couldn't live without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack, SASS #20451 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I still use a flip phone. Military tough and secure. Battery can be removed and no GPS. With the battery out there is no way to track the phone. Battery lasts over a week. I have no need for an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 My phone is only on when I go to town. No service out here. The flip phone wore out so I have a smart Samsung. The camera comes in handy sometimes but I only use the phone to call the mem sahib occasionally. I couldn’t care less about games, videos, news updates, Instagram, texts, etc. I feel sorry for the kids who are actually addicted to the things. Most women hardly carry purses anymore but the phone seems to be glued to their hand 24/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
