StaceyinLA Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) IF you have a cell phone, is it an iPhone or not? I'm just curious to see what percentage of cell phone users here have iPhones, and I am CERTAIN these polls are an exact science. :tongue_smilie: I voted!

scrapbookbuzz Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 No, I don't have an iPhone. I like my Samsung Gravity T. Suits my purposes. If I want a device to act like a computer, I'll get a computer. That being said, I am on the hunt for a reasonably priced iPad 2. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forget-Me-Not Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Well I voted yes, but I don't think everyone has an iPhone. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3boysmama Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I do! I LOVE it!! It's worth every penny to me! My dh also has one and agrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmmetler Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 No, but not because of phone features. If I'd been able to get an iPhone with my $25/month Virgin Mobile cheapy smartphone plan, you'd better believe I'd have one. As it stands, I have an LG Optima 3g phone which provides much of the functionality, but isn't nearly as nice as what I can do with the iPod or iPad when they have wi-fi.

Spryte Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I love my iPhone! FaceTime is fantastic... and maybe a good way for you keep in touch with dgs, too. (Did I get that abbreviation right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3browneyedboys4me Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Nope! But, my ipad has made me an Apple convert and i will be getting an iphone as soon as my contract renews. And, as soon as I can, we will be converting the boys to Mac's for school. :D Love them!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milovany Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 No, not an iPhone. I just got a new Nokia Lumia (smart phone with Windows) and I'm loving it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wapiti Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 No, I have a droid (has internet, email, touch-screen, etc.). Is that what you're looking to find out, droid vs. apple, or are you wondering whether most people have "regular" phone-and-texting only, vs. internet capability/"smart-phones" ? They are different questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I put other because I don't have an IPhone but I would LOVE to have one. It's the monthly fee that keeps me from getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious to see what percentage of cell phone users here have iPhones, and I am CERTAIN these polls are an exact science. :tongue_smilie: I voted! I have a Nokia. It works great and it was within budget. I don't do monthly, annual contracts -just pays-as-you-go (it also keeps me within budget!).

Education Explorers Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I got an Iphone for my birthday last year. I thought it would be "nice" or "fun" to have after hearing about all the cool stuff you could get on it. Now that I have owned it for awhile... How did I ever live without this thing? It is amazingly helpful in so many different aspects of my life!!! I LOVE IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mabeline Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Yup, I love my iPhone. We have only had it since Christmas. I am constantly thinking of new things to do with my phone, and when I check, sure enough, there's an app for that.:lol: Just last night I was wondering if my phone could scan documents and save them as PDFs. I even found a free app. I am thinking I could scan occasional worksheets and send them to my iPad for my ds to fill out. I love my iPhone and iPad.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I voted "other" because I had an iPhone for 2 years...but when my contract expired a few months ago, I couldn't justify continuing to pay almost $80/mo. I went with a Motorola Droid on Virgin Mobile, and in less than 4 months my monthly savings had paid for the phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincessAriel Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Do you mean a smartphone? I have a Droid 4G which I chose over the i phone. Has many of the same features and I get to keep my keyboard.:001_smile: I answered other;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcelmer Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I voted other because I would LOVE a smart phone, so the "no, not in a million" would not apply, but I cannot afford one, so "yes" does not apply either. If it's a matter of choice of OS, I would prefer a droid phone I think . I currently own a under $20 used cell that just calls, texts, & takes really crummy pictures. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Well I voted yes, but I don't think everyone has an iPhone. :) :iagree: But, I love, love, love, love my iPhone. We got our plans back when AT&T had unlimited data plans. My eldest dd has a droid. The droid is okay, but it's not the same as an iPhone.

elegantlion Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 We don't. Ds wants one, once Sprint gets them cheaper he'll have one. I have an HTC, as does dh. Mine was a free upgrade during the Black Friday specials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJ. Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I voted no but the "not in a million" does not apply to me because if the cost was much, much lower I'm sure I would really enjoy having one. I just don't see how an extra $30 a month per phone is worth it to have internet. Really, unless you MUST have the internet at ALL times for professional reasons I don't really understand why anyone needs an internet phone. Is it nice, I'm sure it is very nice but I don't understand how most people justify the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joannqn Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 DH gravitates towards Android based tablets and phones. Since I get his hand-me-down phones, I have an Android. One of the biggest factors in that decision is cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lailasmum Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I have an android phone and love it, it does everything I need. If iphones where the same price as an android maybe I would go for it but in practice they are on the most expensive plans with up front costs and essentially my android does all the same stuff.

ScoutTN Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 i'd love to have a smart phone, but that is way out of our budget! Our cell phone lines are piggy-backed on the primary accts. of extended family members - they pay the $10/mo for each of our lines. They haven't offered to do $50+/month (x2) for us to have smart phones. If they did, we'd probably spring for the iphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocelotmom Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 "Not in a million" is a little overly-vehement. I don't have one, and feel no real sense of loss at not having one (though they do seem to have a better app selection than android, which I do have), but like Apple products in general and wouldn't rule out getting one in the future.

myfatherslily Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 "Other", because there are qualifiers on the yes and no! No, I do not have one, but I wouldn't mind having one! I don't have the $$ to buy one or the $$ to pay for a data plan. I was given an iPad last week, though! I'm pretty psyched and content right now. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
