Real price of a smart phone

The Real Price of a Smartphone - Forbes

So, whatcha think?

Is your phone worth it to you?

Mine is. We travel a lot and use some of the apps constantly. And I often conduct business from my car.

Getting rid of the land lines we weren't using helped offset the cost but even so, I'd hate to give up my iPhone now.

I don't use an i-phone, won't pay those prices for a phone when Android will do the same or better for a lot less. Not interested in the "I have an Apple i-phone/i-pad" status........ My Android phone cost me $120 up front and $25 a month for phone, text and internet via Virgin Mobile.

Without e-mail on my phone my job would be completely impossible. Access to the internet is often a huge help too.

Tracphone does everything I need. $80 up front, $8/mo. (I do not stream stuff on to it)

[Mr. H.]

Smart phones can be time wasters or productivity tools.

I use my iPhone for the latter.

AND I LIKE IT.

Coverage matters more to me than anything else, and I have found Verizon has the best coverage. But I cannot wait until the others catch up so I can ditch Verizon and its high prices.

I use less than half a dozen apps regularly on my phone, though I have about two dozen altogether. Most are time wasters.

I don't use my phone that much. It feels like I am putting a clipboard up to my head.
