Mobile phones are a necessity especially in our time when communication is relevant as breathing. As an individual, each and everyone of us has their own preference especially in picking the things we like and prefer. Especially in buying cell phones, we have our own brand that we desire for whatever reason we have. For instance, most of us like phones that supports wi-fi and a high-pixelated camera. Like me, I prefer Nokia compared to other brands. My reason is that its user-friendly in terms of texting and navigating its features. Plus its resale value is high compared to its competitors. You? What brand of mobile phone do you own? Me, I own a Nokia e51, a business phone.

I personally have an I-Phone, its the best phone I have ever had, used to have black berries and nokia's but the i-phone is just superb and so easy to use for my business.
My brother works in a phone shop so have tried virtually every handset out there when a new hand set comes out I always have a play with them and still nothing to touch the i-phone in my opinion.

hey i have an I phone too. i lost my samsung which was known to be the thinnest phone. My dad gave me his I phone because his fingers were too fat and he couldn't really use the touch screen feature, it bugs him so yeah he decided to give it to me.The I Phone is really awesome, it has everything in it, internet, music, movies, messaging feature, games and a lot more. It's like bringing your own PC. Great gadget.

Ive tried using a one when I was in Los Angeles. It was my mum's spare phone. Kinda enjoyed it but I am still not used to using a qwerty keypad phone. Thanks for posting.

I used to own an LG xenon, mainly for texting my friends. Now I use an iphone 3gs, because it was released near my birthday. The iphone3gs is AMAZING. It has every feature you can think of that you might possible need in any given situation. It's basically the best phone you'll run across. It's a pity that it is from the at&t company. I usually use verizon.

You can also talk to the person face to face if he/she owns a 3g phone as well. Neat.

Have you heard about nokia 5110?
That's the phone of the decade! You know why? Because even if you have it for over a decade it's still in good shape. LOL
Sturdy, hardy and indestructible, almost.
Just bear with the weight, structure and design.
Oh wait, are they already obsolete? My bad,

Hi mchavez11! I currently own two phones. One is LG KU6000 or also known as LG SECRET in other countries, I use it as a roaming phone. The second one is LG KU9100 or also known as LG COOKY, I use it for local calls and messaging. Both of these are good Korean phones.

i use an N73..i really love it as well because of the wide range of applications avaiable on it..it doesnt have Wifi or GPs though..but there are applications which makes the N73 work just like as if has a GPS system and thats why im very satisfied with it...id say it would be one of the best phones if it also had WIFI

I have used sony-ericsson, samsung, motorola and htc phones in the past... then I have used nokia... presently, i possess a nokia 5800 and think the phone is really cool and full of features... but, using a windows mobile touchscreen phone before, i feel, nokia has rooms to make its symbian os for touchscreen phones (series 60, release 5) more user friendly... specially the scrolling part of it using touch, and when it doesn't have any button scroller or joystick... hopefully, they will... you might be knowing, nokia 5800 is nokia's first ever touchscreen phone...

My first phone was Nokia coz its really user friendly, but when I discovered samsung I switch to samsung as it has a good quality and the price does not depreciate as fast as nokia. The parts of samsung are expensive though but its of good quality. if you're samsung user you will find it user friendly too coz you will get used to it.

I like Samsung's clamshell phones. They're nice and sleek looking. Elegant.

The only Motorola unit that got into me is the Moto Razr. Its design is timeless but the features is pre-historic. I think they should maintain its looks and upgrade its functionalities.

I have an LG 550 Fusic. I've had it for about three years, and I absolutely love it. my contract will be up in October. If the phone still works I'll keep it. If iPhones are still expensive I'll keep it, but if I find a cheap place to BUY an iPhone (no contract) and a cheap place to pay for the service, then I'll transfer my old phone to my husband who needs a phone, and I'll get an iPhone.

I have a free TracFone and get a free monthly amount of minutes. I do not consider a cell phone to one of my life's necessities. I only use this cell phone for emergencies as I do not have the need for a cell phone as my land line serves all my communication needs.

Well I don't have the best or the most expensive cell phone, but I think I get a better deal than most. I pay $40. a month, for that I get unlimited calling to any one any where, there are no minutes to count, or go over. I also get all the texting I can do, and calling to Mexico and Canada and some Europien countrys free too. I have free service to get information if I need a number while I am out, most charge $5. extra for this service. And I have the internet on mine. All free. So it does what I need it to do for half the cost and also I don't have a picture phone but planning to upgrade around christmas, but I have unlimited pic texing too. So is a good deal for me, I don't pay extra for the name of some company. I have good service and no problems with dropped calls.

I take great interest in mobile phones. i have used many phones starting from Nokia 1100 to the e series sets. But my main problem is that i am very careless and lose my sets quite often. so i have now settled for a Samsung s3500 . It is worth Rs 5249 in Indian currency . It is a pretty fashionable cell and also cheap enough for careless people like me as it is also provided with a tracker system
