How often do you change cell phones?

Question

Do you use one faithfully until it breaks down, or do you change whenever to stay current with the "phone trends?"

Answer 1

every 50,000 miles

Answer 2

I change cell phones about every 2-3 months. When I purchase a new phone, I sell the "old" one on ebay, so I don't have a collection of phones. I currently have a phone that I am not too happy with (I've had it about a month - the performance of it isn't too great), and I am purchasing a new one. However, my husband told me that this will be my last phone for a while (at least a year)...so I have to pick a good one! lol.

Answer 3

I keep them until the battery stops holding a charge. Usually if I sign a contract I can get a free phone anyway so it would be cheaper than trying to find a battery that the stores don't carry anymore.

I've had 3 different phone models in the past 3 years,

not to mention i've broken several and been sent a replacement of the same model in the mail.
