My smartphone has changed my life.

[Jehanne]

For the better!  I just got my very first smartphone in December:



It's not even a high-end phone, but it is simply amazing.  It's almost like a Borg implant.  I use it to post on this forum, connect to my home computer and security camera, check the weather, email, and texts, and the camera, although not perfect, is pretty decent.  And, above all, there are almost an endless opportunities to read (even at work while on the toilet), something that I love to do!

It's like I have entered into another universe!  Can't imagine getting an expensive one (although, that would be nice), because I am afraid that I would drop the thing in the toilet, accidentally step on it, etc., and at $700 to $800, it's just too much of a risk.

LG phones rock! I’m on my second one now. Enjoy

It looks similar to my LG Tracfone. Yes a Tracfone. I'm poor-ish lol

Cool cool cool my current phone is probably my fourth.i like pretty looking phones like the lumia 830, Xperia z2..I'm so much a sucker for their looks that I don't put any screen protection or body case because it'll ruin the phone look wise.that was my mistake. I already broke the display of my new phone and got it replaced just some months ago. So please! Buy a screen protector (not the filmsy type) get a proper glass type, and after that get a hard case to protect the phone body. You won't regret it!

I get lovely leather cases for my phones, they are generally really cheap and have helped my phones survive my clumsy nature.

I love the ability to add a larger SD card. I could take off the back of my older LG and change the battery.

Oh leather cases are fine but if you're extra clumsy like me what you really need is a hard case .



Yep. It does make your phone look big, clunky and ugly BUT it's got good grip, it keeps the phone extra safe -
even if you drop it face first.
Plus it's got a little stand you can use when you're watching videos or whatnot



Also, get a screen card for your phone. It'll protect your display from scratches. The guy that I went to buy this hard case from told me his boss bought the same hard case and a screen card so when he dropped his phone (face first!!) the only damage was done to the screen card because if you have a hard case as well as a screen card it's double the protection

@OP, congrats on not biting into the stupid i-devices craze! The phone looks cool, mind sharing the specs?
