Ive wanted to start this thread for a while, never got around to it. Im just kind of curious as to what cell phones and plans people use. Also warn people as to what phones are junk and which plans or companies are good or bad. So Ill start.
I had a Sanyo SCP-3200 through Sprint. Worked great for a year and a half before dying on me. Good basic phone but I wanted something a little more exciting with more features. I use Sprint btw. So I went in and ended up getting the Samsung Rant. It seemed like a good phone, built especially for texting.
The Rant sucked. It was heavy and bulky, like walking around with like two packs of cigs in your pocket. It was great for texting but thats about it. The phone would freeze and lock up on me. Would have to attempt to turn off or pull the battery. Absolutely worthless. Took forever to switch to different applications, phone, internet, texting, etc. I work in some very bad parts of town, kind of tough to diall 911 when I gotta pull a battery out of my phone to get it to reset.
So I took it back and of course Im the only idiot to ever have problems with it.
I ended up getting the Samsung Instinct and so far its a rocking cell. Basically its Sprints answer to the Iphone. Touch screen, 3G network, text, pic mail, vid cam, seemless movement between apps, micro SD card, on and on and on. It takes a little getting used to using a touch screen but so far I like it. I mean this baby is loaded with features I will probably never use, but loaded none the less.
As far as a plan, I have the everything data plan with 450 minutes. This allows me to surf the web, use GPS and navigation with the phone. I try not to talk a lot during the day so 450 minutes works for me.
So what does everyone else have?
