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..... I´m shopping for a retardphone too. :D xiaomi is decent too. but Samsung premiums give longer support and updates. How much of a $$$ hit is the premium plan?....I could figure that into the amount I want to spend. I meant the premium devices, and not the cheapos. You´ll get the good stuff for 4-5 hundred I guess.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76984449 United States 10/02/2020 09:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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. Quoting: cosmicgypsy SO, I'm going to spend about $400....any suggestions on a good phone? I have very much liked my Moto G4 Plus..... 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! I have to get an iphone next time around I have been told. :rof: 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: Then that is what you do. Get something you really want. Have fun. |

Lawdy.....lawdy, lawdy, lawdy. Quoting: cosmicgypsy And I left my phone on top of my car after telling myself not to..... Heh, who's got an "I'm the dumbest animal on the planet" smilie?......'cause I warrant it right now. You survived and that is good. Other people could probably relate. |

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: That was a nice person who took the time to try to help you. |
