How often do you buy yourself a new phone?

hi friend,i have only the same phone for the past three years.my dad bought it for me.at present i am not working so i don't have idea about buying new phone friend.later after i get a job i will buy flip type phone,i like it friend.three years once i will change my phone friend. have a nice day :)

I love to change my mobile when I see a newly upgraded one my friend. But I won't throw my old one. It was gifted to me by my dad.

Generally, I buy myself a new mobile phone when the one I'm currently using has already been used extensively for years. Like for instance, recently I bought a new mobile phone only after using my previous cellphone for 4 years. I don't change my cellphone whenever there is a newly-launched phone; only when it is really necessary.

i am not a mobile freak... i dont know about new launches .... i have been using a samsung phone for around a year now.. i am happy ... and i have no plans in the near future to change it.... and even if i do... i would go for a secondhand bargain rather than a new one... it amazes me how one can find used phones in really good quality at really attractive prices...

Not often, I bought myself a phone 9 years ago and thats it, all the phones I had was given to me by my mother, its second hand from the pawnshop but are still workin fine. Now, I have a NOKIA N85 phone which I am so contented with.

when I bought a cellphone that's mean the best for what I need, so I don't need to change till it broken or lost.

I go for 3 years once. Or depending on the condition of my phone. As long as the phone has internet and a memory card slot, its fine with me. Frankly buying phones often is a waste of money IMO

I iwll usually change phones once a year if not sooner, but usually, I just havwe one a year, as they are just to expensive to change them everytime a new one comes out. The thing of it is, we just can't keep up with technology as it goes way to fast. It never seems to fail though, that when I buy a new phone, a better one willo come out a few months later. Talk about bad timing. I just upgraded in August of last year, so it is to soon to upgrade again, so I will just wait awhile beofre I upgrade again unless my phone acts up, which it is doing now, but shutting itself off. I have a psycho phone I tell you. It will shut off with just a small touch, and I really don't like that, as it is off more than on. If it is sitting on the table, it is fine, but put it in my pocket or purse it will shut off. I might just have to change phonws sooner than I need to. Take care, and happy mylotting.

I try not to buy a new phone the moment I know something new has come out. It may sound cool, but the price is so high and quite often I can't afford it. But, I do usually end up buying a new phone once a year. The reason for this is most phones are designed to last no more then two years. If I buy a new phone every year, yearn and a half, considering how much I use it, then I can stop it from getting so bad, that should I need it later, I have it.

I've had the same phone for 3 years now. Phones are expensive and I only ever use them to.. well.. make phone calls. And any phone whether it's smart or dumb can make phone calls. I'm more interesting in a good plan that will save me money.
