Rate Your Mobile Phone

iPhone 12 ProMax here - excellent phone and superb camera. My contract is up next summer so will probably upgrade if there's a benefit.
 

I spend all day on my phone. It's virtually problem free.

A nice change from computers and laptops, which always needed defragging or something. They drove me crazy with their mysterious antics and regular visits to the computer guy.

Right now I have a Samsung Galaxy A11. I told the salesman I needed AT LEAST 64 gb. About a month later I found out that my phone is only 32 gb. I kind of fixed it by installing an SD card.

Other than that, it's great. Very reliable and low maintenance.
 
After I got the BBB involved, Tracfone eventually replaced the phone I bought from them that didn't work.. the replacement is called an Orbic.. never heard of it, haven't had time to look up details.
 

I had an Alcatel for years and really loved it. Simple operation and always worked. My daughter gave me an iphone XE. Took me a month and a half to figure it out with 3 trips to the Apple Store. It has alot of bells and whistles but I'm not impressed. I never take it with me and it often sits on the counter for a day or 2 without me even looking at it. Can't understand all them senior women addicted to the phone? We even got this "honey" bringing her phone to our exercise class and it makes some really loud music and upsets everyone but she's too thick headed to figure out where the silent button is!

I have a Galaxy A32. It works fine. I mainly use it for listening to audiobooks and podcasts, but occasionally I use it for a phone. Oh, and the calculator. And for controlling the Roku box.
 
I have had Samsung phones. The last one cost $600, and I didn't use half of the trinkets on it. The warranty ran out, I now have the A11. A third of the price, and it does all I want or need. I recently switched from ATT to Consumer Cellular, and am satisfied, no issues at all, but much cheaper.

Motorola Moto G7, an unlocked < $300 phone, 2-1/2 yr.s old. Decent functionality. Service provider: Consumer Cellular. Consumer Cellular is the best value, and has excellent U.S. based customer service.

Recently upgraded to Pixel 7 pro. Has Android 13 and 5 years of security updates. Best phone I've had. Bought unlocked - no contact directly from Google. Used existing nano SIM, fully compatible with Consumer Cellular out of the box.

I have always stayed with the Nexus/Pixel phones. Never had an issue with any of them. Good performance for a good price.
 
My daughter gave me her iPhone 12 Pro Max when she upgraded to the iPhone 13, and I just love it ! The phone is the largest size that Apple makes, so it is easy for me to read everything, the camera is excellent, and it has Face ID , so no issues like with the Touch ID not recognizing my fingerprint sometimes.

I have all of my health apps on the phone, so I can monitor how my heart is doing, oxygen levels and all of that because it is connected with my Apple Watch.
I actually make very few phone calls, and I use my iPad for iMessages and texts most of the time; so my phone dies not get used a lot. Since I have the Apple Watch , I can answer phone calls with that if I do not have the phone nearby; but when I am chatting with my family, or anyone , then I like using the phone better than the watch.
