I have an Apple 5S. I have had it probably 4 or 5 years(not really sure how long). I also bought an Ipad soon after. They were pretty good until last summer when I got "that" update and they have become energy hogs. They will not accept some programs or devices. I have lost my Bluetooth to my Ipad. I have a slip on battery backup for my phone because I use it soo much. I never make throw the day and sometimes I have to charge it up 3 times to make it. With the slip on battery I can just push a button and its start charging my phone(really would like one for my Ipad too) instead of leaving it in my truck or office which I tend to forget. Well just installed another update last night and they did it again. I have not used my phone today other than people calling me. Took it off the charger around 7am and just looked I'm at 19% and its ready to shut down on me. Well I said a few choice words and hit the button to charge my phone. Guess what! It does not recognize my battery so now I have to plug into a wall charger! Which by the way I had to rebuy because the old ones where not compatible with my phone even thou I know when I bought them they were Apple approved from Amazon.

This is it for me. If I replace these devices it will not be Apple product! Apple will have lost me for good. I provide phones for my guys and they chose Galaxy while I choose Apple. Well sounds like there will be a Galaxy in my future sooner than I wished. I really do hate changes. I have enough to deal with than learning more new stuff. Government regs keep me busy enough!

I only buy LG phones. Not only are they good phones and cheap (I tend to buy last years tech because I am cheap),but the LG's are the only cell phones I have found that allow me to make and receive calls inside my Quonset hut (galvanized steel) workshop.

Think I paid 79 bucks for the last one I bought 3 or 4 years ago,and still using. It is a K8 V model.

LG does make some good stuff. Their Android phones are steady performers, not a bad choice. Some of Motorola's phones are decent too.

I used to buy Motorola phones until I put up that steel workshop and discovered I couldn't make or receive phone calls while in it.

And let's face it,buying a 5 inch screen smart phone for $79 is so cheap why bother looking for anything better unless you are one of those droids that likes to watch movies,tv shows,porn,etc,etc,etc on your phone 24/7. In that case,you need to be locked away in a padded room until you get better,and you won't need a phone there. What the HELL is wrong with people? They buy 60+ inch lcd or plasma tvs for the the "Best viewing experience",and then watch tv on their freaking I-Pads.

Some people really use their phones a lot for work and personal life. For them, having a smartphone with the features they want is a lot more important. They want the pricey phones with all the latest features.

Most retirees don't need or want fancy phones. They don't spend hours a week on a phone usually.

I rarely watch TV or movies on a tablet or phone. It's too small, not good enough sound quality. If you're going to waste time watching TV, watching it on a decent sized TV screen seems like it's part of the experience.

I can see it for those people,but I regularly see "mom,dad,and de little wuns" sitting and eating lunch in a fast food joint,and not looking at or saying a word to one another. I'm a little surprised they can take their thumbs off their phones long enough to eat.

I used to think that people were deliberately snubbing me if they used their phones in my presence. And it is true that they are doing that. I felt that way with clan gatherings, funerals and weddings, etc. Why drag us all out to some boring event if all people do is sit around staring at their phones, looking like they wished they were somewhere else, alone with just their phone?

But I finally realized that it wasn't just me being snubbed, they all do it to each other as well, all the time. The exception seems to be if they are placating someone higher in the family/business/social pecking order than they are. So people only put down their phones to kowtow to others they perceive as having higher status and ability to adversely affect their lives. Anyone of equal or lower status doesn't get that courtesy.

"Courtesy"???? What is that? I can't remember the last time I have seen anyone under 30 be courteous to anyone unless they were doing it as a part of their job.

Any day now I expect to look down and see my belt buckle up near my armpits,and hear myself shouting "You young whippersnappers!" at people as I wave my cane at them.

That doesn't make it any less true,though. "Personal Computing Devices" has done more to isolate people that anything else in history. Not even a contagious disease outbreak has isolated people like you see today. It is now possible to be all alone in a crowd of thousands who are also all alone.

This leads to "troubled loners",not "independent thinkers.
