How long have you had your mobile?

wireless101

This july I will have had my 6630 3 years and its's still in great condition despite my having dropped it at least 100 times. it's a great phone! Got it for 200 euro as well, there was a deal at the time where you give in your old phone and get 100 euro off so that was good!

Just wondering how long everybody else's phone lasted and if they were good value for money.

Had my Sharp GX20 for 3 years and today I killed it It ended up in the washing machine. What a sad way to go for such a great reliable phone.

I'm still using a 6233 I bought on ebay when they came out. I tend to get bored with phones after a while though. I bought a HTC Touch Cruise but sold it on about 2 weeks later (the touch screen just wasn't as good for texting) and am now waiting on my new E65 to arrive.

I buy a new one whenever they take my fancy.

I've had a W810 replaced with k800i when they came out and then a k810i last October. I've had that since as I can't find anything to match it.

(I carry two phones around, I'm a sad bastard ..)
I've had a e50 since they came out on o2, then an e65 since they came out and got a e51 about a month ago.


All I have to do is justify the purchase in my mind

krudler

had my k800i since nov 06, got a w580i today with my free work upgrade, n95 8gb is next on the list

Gekko

I wonder who has the highest numbers on their all calls duration timer...?

I will probably win this, although it's not a prize to be proud of!

I have had a Nokia 7650 since near the end of 2002. I still have it and use it. I have bought a battery off ebay 8 months ago or so but bar that, I have dropped it, filled it with dust/water/plaster and god knows what else...

I have been thinking of upgrading for a couple of years but never get round to it.

It's my phone and it's like an old dying pet; there are many more newer, and charming models, but it's mine

P.S. Heres a thread I posted not long after I got it http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=657303&highlight=nokia+7650#post657303

i'm afraid the 6230i was only announced to the world 3 years ago and wouldn't have made it to ireland for a while after that

I have had my nokia 6280 for about a year and a quarter, I got it in christmas 06 although I miss my n-gage qd.

eve

I've had my Nokia 3100 since August 2004-only the 4th phone I've had in 10 years.

Doctor DooM

I have a N95 nearly a year to the day.

I used to average 1 phone every 3 years or so, then I got a job in O2. I had 3 phones in the time I was there (2 years!)


I like paying for a really good phone and wearing it out til destruction.

chrislad

I tend to get a phone, get bored of it within 6 months (if even) and trade it for something else. I've been through, in the last 3 years, the following

Nokia 3200
Nokia 3220
Nokia 5300
Nokia 6300
Nokia 6233
Nokia E65
Nokia N70
Nokia N91
Sony K750i
Sony M600i
Sony W800i
Sony W900i
Sony W810i
Sony K800i
Sony P900i
Sony P910i
Sony W610i
Motorola V3
Motorola V8
Samsung D500
Apple iPhone
O2 XDA Mini S


Currently using a Nokia N95 8gig, which I've had for a month. It's probably the best out of the lot in terms of what I want (good MP3, battery, internet) but the iPhone is a very close second. The internet on that was second to none. I might have a phone from anything for a week (in the case of Motorola) to about 6 months (iPhone).

Had the 7370 since July 06. Bought a 7373 at Xmas as the other was playing up. They're basically the same phone. I like the shape of the keypad so I'd buy it again.

Still using a Nokia 6680 I got in September 2005... that's a record for me!

Predhead

Had my N95 since last July. That's a long time for me!

Still using my SE K750i 3 years on (time for an upgrade methinks). Good phone, the joystick has gone a bit temperamental though.

Kur4mA

I've had my iphone pretty much since they were release in the states. I got mine on eBay soon afterwards.

Yakult

I have my Nokia n70 for 2 years now. Still going strong, but Im upgrading this week and keeping it as a backup to the n95.

kaimera

N95 for a 2-3 months now.

w810i previous for over a year.

6230 for around 18 months previous.

poukai

Have had my current phone - Sony W580i, very nice - only for 3 months, since moving to Ireland. Previous phone (that I still have, active on a French network), a Nec ... something, can't remember off the top of my head, neat little flap phone, I have had for over a year... I usually use my phones until they fail, get lost, stolen or I find an excuse to get a new one.

skywalker

Ive had a k750i for a little under 2 years. Great phone. First one Ive had where the camera really took good pics.

I have been eyeing up the nokia 6500 lately though.

Run_to_da_hills
