Old models versus the new ones

Hi everyone! I am still using the old model as my primary cellphone it's a nokia 3310 remeber that phone? It's the one that came after the 5210 which has an antenna and as big as the telephone. I prefer it since it is very user friendly and don't have to take a lot of care in handling it. Even if I throw it it still works! Another is that I am dumb in using the touchscreen in mobile phones so I'm stuck with the old model with keypads. What about you do you like, use, or prefer the old model or the new models?

I used to prefer newer cellphones with the newest features than and old one before. But now i kinda choose cellphones only based on the model and price. I usually tried to look for cellphone that has a model that i really likes. Usually the model of cellphone that i like usually an expensive one that i can't afford, but sometimes i found a cellphone that i will choose that has good model and cheaper eventhough the feature is kinda old. I realise cellphone's main use is for calling and text messagging only for me, so there is no need for me to buy newer cellphone that has more expensive price. Just choose based on the model and price, and if possible the more complete feature as possible with that price. ^_^

I have the old model with me. It's Nokia SuperNova 7210. I'm still stuck with keypads since I'm not used to touch screens and all those apps present in smart phones. I actually don't get why there are some people who keep on changing phones. My phone has been with me since I was in college and as long as it's still working, I'm keeping it. I don't mind any kind of phone as long as I can text, call and put some music in it. ^_^

My mobile phone is pretty old, I look at the new ones but I am not sure I would be able to understand how they work, I only use my mobile phone for emergencies because I really find it hard to use and to understand how the internet part of it works is very confusing to me.

As long as it can send messages and can make/receive calls...not bad. I am not a gadget addict or trend user, thu I am using a good phone for almost 4 years now. I only bought this phone because I like photography and I don't want to carry digicam with me always. So,I am using this phone for taking photos and I am happy with this one...it's kind of old since it's already 4 yrs old...

Old classic phones all the way. I realized it after buying a touch screen phone. It was one of the biggest mistakes. The old models were user-friendly, durable and just pure awesome.

i had a nokia 3310, too! Well, actually seems every person in the world has had one at last. It was really a good phone and i used to spend my days playing snakes... good times ^^ Now we have more needs, like cameras and internet etc... but if you use it only as a mobile phone(to make calls) i guess it's a very good phone

I am still stuck with an old phone, which is from T- mobile when I signed the contract with them, and this cheap phone just come with free of cost. I won't mind people laughing at me that I still use some kind of cheap phone now, and I don't have any big use of the Iphone or those smartphones. For me, if I don't have internet connection with them, they are simply useless.
