MrPin Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 The battery is well worn out on my 15 year old Nokia 3510! When I took the back off, it broke! I've ordered a Samsung "something" for £82. Have I been extravagant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPin Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Sorry to disappoint but it can only be a max of 12 years old You are probably right. I had a 3310 before that, but I dropped it down the toilet, and it didn't work after that, so a bloke at work gave me a spare 3510. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPin Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Does your new phone squeak? I actually have no idea what it might do! I didn't want to spend £400! I don't need a full HD screen, and would like it to fit in my pocket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

libspero Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Think I'd personally have spent another £30 and got the MotoG.. But it'll probably be fine for 99% of anything you're ever likely to need it for. Hope you get another 15 years out of this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattW Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 'Happy New Phone' MrPin! You're more 'with it' than I am. I currently have a battle worn 6 year old Samsung SGH 250 phone. http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_e250-1772.php I too cannot envisage spending 400 quid on a phone. I lost a £50 Nokia phone 5 years ago which was unfortunate enough. Losing a £400 phone would really upset me. My first mobile phone was a Motorola 3788. It was like the 'Volvo Estate' of mobile phones. I deliberately kept dropping it on the floor and it kept functioning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPin Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 I've bought a cheapy £82 phone! I too, can't justify a £400 one, although I have been happy to pay that for just a fraction of a guitar! Seriously, the old one was held together with insulation tape, to keep the battery in!

Frank Hovis Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I've bought a cheapy £82 phone! I too, can't justify a £400 one, although I have been happy to pay that for just a fraction of a guitar! Seriously, the old one was held together with insulation tape, to keep the battery in! Cor, what counts as cheap up country these days! I've gone back to a buttons one because the touch screen on mine broke and I'm a few months from getting a new one. I'm beginning to think the new one might have buttons too.... Upsides of buttons: Battery life - I realised i haven't charged it for two days, it's still nearly fully charged Lack of distraction - I don't feel the need to keep glancing at it or checking anything; if it rings or bleeps I pick it up. This makes me a lot more relaxed; if I'm on the train I enjoy the view and the journey and the phone is a passive accessory. Much smaller - I always knew which pocket my smartphone was in by the size and weight, this is compact and light Price Durability - all my buttons phones have made > 5 years and in the case of my first (brick-ish) phone is as far as I know still working, on my work smartphones I cracked two screens and my first owned one has lasted about 18 months before requiring a repair that I'm not going to bother with Downsides of buttons: It has a lot less functionality but see "Lack of distraction" above. I'm not missing the nag that is Candy Crush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
