Yeah, I'm thinking I'm going to look at a Samsung phone. My son swears by them, and he worked tech for Apple for a long time.

I'm hoping to get him to go with me to look at phones....he knows so much more about them than I do. I'm a techno dummy....heh, it goes with being the President of the Unofficial GLP Derphead Club.

When you posted some....gibberish....that I'm sure makes sense to you, I was sitting here like....why you speaking Greek, brother-man?

NONE of it makes a lick of sense to me.....shrug
 Quoting: cosmicgypsy

I´m shopping for a retardphone too. :D

xiaomi is decent too. but Samsung premiums give longer support and updates.
 Quoting: waycation



How much of a $$$ hit is the premium plan?....I could figure that into the amount I want to spend.
 Quoting: cosmicgypsy


I meant the premium devices, and not the cheapos.

You´ll get the good stuff for 4-5 hundred I guess.

Oh, jeebus crust on a cracker.....putin

The alarm on my phone is going off, it's the rooster sound, and I have no way of shutting the damn phone off....lawdy, I have it buried under clothes in a closed drawer and I can still hear it.

Is this thing going to keep doing this until the phone runs out of its charge? Does it not stop after a certain amount of time?....got damn, I'm going to have to go put this in the SUV. That kwap will make me nutz.

Re: This is an I fooked up my phone, it's now dead, drinking thread!
I was going to buy a new phone this year anyway because I need the tax write off and my dead one is three years old, but I was going to wait until Black Friday and see if I could get one at a savings....so yeah, that's not happening.


SO, I'm going to spend about $400....any suggestions on a good phone?


I have very much liked my Moto G4 Plus.....ohyeah
 Quoting: cosmicgypsy


no help here.. i use my phone about a decade at a time before I replace and I always buy what ever is on sale which means it is discontinued but still.. I don't like spending money on phones! peace

I have to get an iphone next time around I have been told. :rof:
 Quoting: rewind



If it weren't for the tax write off I would not be looking to spend that much.....but I refuse to sit in front of my tax lady crying like a baby for 1.5 hrs again next year.


I'd rather spend my money on a phone and endless car washes and clothes and ANYTHING else I can find to write off.


I do not like crying in front of people......:mikeno:

janice-OMG.....the depth of my stupidity today is starting to set in....I mean, I ran out into traffic, putting my hands up for them to stop. Lawdy.....lawdy, lawdy, lawdy.


And I left my phone on top of my car after telling myself not to.....sigh


Heh, who's got an "I'm the dumbest animal on the planet" smilie?......'cause I warrant it right now.

 Quoting: Plato II



Or you can just throw it out into a very busy intersection and let the traffic do the heavy work.....charlie


When I picked the phone up the screensaver fell off. Somebody in another car rolled down their window and said something dropped off. I held the phone up and said, "It's fucking TOAST!" He said he was sorry.

The phone screen is completely shattered....it looks like the spider web from a spider on crack. I imagine 20 semis ran over it the way it looks. It still rings and I get text notices, but no way to answer it. I can't even power it down.

I'd be crying if I didn't have the money to get a new one, but I do. Thankfully I save for blunders like this.


Gawd, I have to laugh....it's better than crying. I'm very glad I can roll with the punches....:jay:
