One thing I like about my "smart phone."

OK, maybe two things. The one I was thinking of is that it charges up quickly. It is down to 20 per cent right now, and I just hooked it up. It will be back to nearly 100 percent within an hour. Another is that it takes pretty good pictures. Many of my "older" photos were taken with a small Kodak digital camera. My cell phone takes equally good photos. Do you have a smart phone? Are you happy with it? Photo is of a recent sunset, taken with my cell phone (and edited with the software that came with my Kodak camera).

Your photo did not come through. Most of the time, you need to make it smaller and try again. I have a smartphone. it takes decent pictures but not of the quality I would like. I need to upgrade my phone but that will have to wait for a while.

Do you have an editing program, either on the phone or on your desktop?

There are some filters. I can crop. I see that your photo came through. It is beautiful. I love how you captured layers of light and color. I love sunsets and rises.

The phones nowadays take great photos. Vince's phone needs to be charged every day but it does charge quickly.

Maintaining a charge is one of my phone's strong points.

What phone do you have? I have iPhone 14. When we got it at AT&T they gave us a fast charger. I hope that’s not bad for the battery. So far so good.

I have a smart phone. My attitude is "meh, it is a phone, I can make phone calls and clock into work."

Yes, I am satisfied with my phone mostly. Just where I live the reception sucks! Also the server company is expensive!

I switch on god's songs on my cell phone in the morning and start cooking in the kitchen....heavenly... Our lyrics are also very deep Some people enjoy the happiness based on the lines on their palms You on the other hand are a light like the star... Filled with self awareness...and calmness. Fill your wings with dreams of tomorrow, and take that first flight... Dear self.........in the temple of this mind.

I have an Iphone 14 pro in deep purple and I love it. I had always been an Android girl until we bought our van. Making the switch was easy. George fell in love too, asking for an iPhone shortly after I got my first one, and once he started using it, he picked up on it quickly.

@TheHorse If I knew he'd pick up on it so easily, I would've bought one years ago. I like what I have though.

I like my smart phone too. The camera feature is especially nice. I also use the magnifier often.

Smart phones are needed for digital banking etc., and the older ones are getting out of date at a faster pace. I have an iPhone 15 and that is good as of now. The photos are good.

That's a lovely photo. We don't have smartphones. Our basic flip phones now have cameras; but I don't know about the quality of the pictures because I haven't figured out how to get them off the camera. Have a good day.

I use a Samsung Galaxy note 10 plus. It is a great phone , 5 year old. I usually use the phone for calling , texting and browsing net. Really for taking photos and playing games. Perhaps one reason why the phone has lasted lomg. Usually , average lifespan of phones with me had been just 3 years. I am happy with the features of the smartphone. I cannot single out any feature but then Galaxy Notes have pretty good lifespan and a good high end model. All features are equally great including wireless charging. Glad you are hppy with your smartphone. The photo looks great.

The smart phone is quite important for our lives. I always keep my mobile phone when I go out. As I can pay by smart phone and I need it.

I had a smart phone that took ages to charge. But a couple of months ago my brother invited me to dine out, saw my phone and offered me one of his old cellphones that he kept to give to his gardener. The new one charges very quickly too. And my brother changed all the memory and other thinguies at his home so I did not have to listen to him yelling.

Oh, I love my smart phone. Can’t believe we had all these 20 different things that the phone does by itself now.

I had android phones for years. My oldest son got me an iphone about 10 years ago...I used it forever, until it was pretty much outdated, and he bought me another one for a gift. I think they take great pictures, especially considering I was never much of a photographer. The colors are great, too. It charges quickly, I hope it lasts me a long time. These nice phones are so expensive!
