Will you exchange your cellphone with someone else?

Tonight I found there is something wrong with my husband's cellphone. So I have to exchange mine with his. As I can get it fixed tomorrow on the way to work. I don't mind exchange cellphones as there is no secret inside. We can share many things. Although both of our cellphones are smartphones and even his cellphone is much more advanced. I still prefer to use mine. Because I store movies in my cellphone and I can watch it whenever I have a little bit free time. Since we exchange cellphones, that means to say tomorrow I am unable to watch some movies. It seems my day will be quite boring. There is nothing interesting in his cellphone:)

Nope i will never ever exchange my cellphone with someone else, because i have purchased it a few days ago, and its a pretty much better set for me (at least for a couple of days...) But after a few months when i got bored with my set then i will probably exchange my cellphone with someone's else.

I can't switch phones even with my husband... the cell phone that i am using right now is provided for by my office... so it wouldn't look right if i come to work using a different one... But if it was a different case... then i wouldn't mind switching with my husband... if it is and emergency... and he needs to use the cell phone more than me... we did is in the past... but i also missed using my own cell phone...

I don't have any love for my phone, it's more of a necessity to me and I barely use it, just to text a few people and only use it as emergencies for when I am out driving in case I break down, I think the only way I'd exchange if someone had a Nokia. That is the only phone I have ever and will ever use, I love Nokia, so providing they had a nokia I would swop, mind you mine is only a cheap basic one now, I traded my last one in because 3 wouldn't release it unless I paid £15! But that's a different story

We only have one cellphone which I hold on to 99% of the time. The only time he uses it is when he goes to golf.

i am not sure about this. i haven't really thought about it but i have noticed that getting a new phone (even if it's old) can be tough. It's hard to get used to all the controls and features. Also i have all the contacts in my phone and not the sim so i would lose all that and it's difficult to get all the numbers. I don't remember any numbers so i will be lost.

I store the contacts in the cellphone than sim card. As I can only store simple information such as name and telephone numbers in the sim card. I can't store address etc. there. When I exchange cellphone with my husband, namely our contacts will be lost at that day:)

I use my cell phone for a phone so nothing interesting in mine either even though the phone is capable of a lot more than what I do with it. Thanks Zelo

Yeap and my phone is my phone. My brother is in the same line of business and he carries a PDA with WindowsCE on it and all that jazz... I just keep my laptop with me wherever I go. Thanks Zelo

No... normally i will not exchange my cell with others. Except a special request from my love one. I prefer to use my own that contents a lot of personal infomation. I may not get used to other's cell and afraid that it might get spoiled.

That depends up on your want and the person you are giving, be careful otherwise it will land us in big trouble.

Good evening, dear youless. I do not like to exchange my cell phone with other's because I am only used to using mine and I am very familiar with its function, especially when I have to text messages to someone far away. I love my cell phone simple because the main purpose for me is to make calls and send messages, which is quite enough for me, at least it is my idea right now. Thanks and good night.

Why not, I exchange it with my daughters phone but not yet with some friends. I dont have any thing to hide or to keep on so I dont care if I exchange my phone with someone I know. But of course not to someone whom I dont know personally.

Usually our children's stuff will be better and advanced to ours. So it's not a bad idea to exchange a cellphone with your daughters

I have changed phones with my hubby and it drove him CRAZY because I get SO many phone calls throughout the day dealing with my kids. We have nothing to hide either. He was just so suprized on how busy that I really am throughout the day with all I deal with: docs, schools, councelors, ect.

Yeah, I will. Once I exchange my cellphone with my friend who is a girl as well. To some extent, we did it for fun, bucause I had a new phone to use without spending an extra cent. But since the phone is not mine, I have to be very careful not to break it. And being not familiar with the function, I felt a little strange when using it, especially sending text message. But it is really interesting.

It's the advantage to exchange them as you can know well each other's cellphones.
