Sometimes can't believe how fast the cell phone trends change. From this type to that type, advanced OS, beautiful design (hssh..its alot). As a result, many people keep changing their cell phone for the reason following lates trend. But actually is it necessary? For me, i just need cell phone with internet which working properly. What about you guys??!

I need a phone that I can use for email. I use email a lot for work, and being able to access it from anywhere makes my life a lot easier.

hi riefa,
When cellphones are new to my eyes, I really really want to have one. In fact, I do envied those classmates of mine who have their own mobile phones. I was only in high school when those texting become very popular. The cellphone during those times are quite expensive so I cannot have one.
When I need to take an exam, my mom promised me that she will buy me a cellphone once I passed it. With God's help, I was able to pass it. I just use my cellphone for call ands sending messages. In terms of mms or internet, I am not much into it. I had one cellphone before in which one of its features was I an access my email. When I used it, I found it difficult to navigate from the page. That is why, if I want to use the net, I just open my computer and not my cellphone.

I am really amazed why some people could be so picky when it comes to cell phones. They like their cell phones to be always the latest model. It's a waste of money in the end. But maybe some could trade in their old cell phones, or the plan already matured so they can have another plan hence, can get a new model.
Me, being a practical person, as long as i can call and text, and that it has camera, video and blue tooth, i am already fine with it. I don't need WIFI, because when i would like an internet, i can always do it in my laptop.
You don't need WIFI, when you are at the mall or when you are strolling.

There are different reason why people want to keep up with the trend especially with cellphones. Those who have money wanted to show that they can afford the expensive ones. Others are pursuing it because they want to place their hard earned money by investing it to cellphones.
As for me, I don't care what cellphone I will be bringing as long as it is not the oldest ones. I won't be having a problem which kind of cellphone but as much as possible I can make a call and text and most importantly, the cellphone has long battery life.

Its true that cell phones keep changing so fast and it is hard to keep up with the technology. I know many people who race out to get the newest phone whenever it comes out. Personally, I like the new phones, but I try to make mine last as long as I can. I don't really see the need to replace a phone that works perfectly fine.

People have others attitudes. Sometimes people want to go for what is trending now and some people are contented in what they have as long it still useful to them . For me, I'm not interesting in changing cell phone because I'm not rich to change it. Honestly I adore those beautiful cell phones but still I can't change because I don't have dollars to buy expensive new cell phone for me.

I am not of the opinion that mobile should be of the latest model.I am quite happy with the phone that is having blue tooth,camera and external memory supported.I do not require wify in my phone while I am at shopping mall.I am quite happy with internet connection at my PC.
