Well answer the question...

I have an iphone 4s, i got it because it was only 100 dollars and because i don't like the size of the 5.

I have an Iphone 4s, bought it because I never had previously owned any other iphone and it was the newest at the time. I would get the 5 if I found a bit of extra money, but it is not that big of deal.

I bought the iPhone 4S through Sprint last summer because I was with AT&T with an iPhone 3GS and got tired of their service and that they eliminated their unlimited data plans.  Sprint's not perfect, but they're also the last carrier left in the country that doesn't limit or restrict their data plans.

The only reason Iphones (and other phones) seem cheaper in the US is because them of being associated with contracts (usually 2yr long ones). The phone plan that a person is made to have, over an extended contract period, makes up for the phone's cost many times over.
The true cost of a phone,in this case, is the value of a new unlocked handset.

At all other places that I have been to, you usually
  • buy any handset you like
    pick any operator you like
    (if you wish), you can select a plan you like, without the necessity of contractual obligation.
Pardon the rant. I digress.

Anywho, I own a Nokia N8. The reason I bought it is because it had the best camera out of any phone on the market at the time, and continued to be for a while. (12MP, Carl Zeiss Lens)

Currently wishing I could own
  • Nokia 808, a 41mp camera sensor with pureview technology,
    Nokia Lumia 920 (flatmate has it, probably the best phone I have operated till date)
    Sony Ericsson Xperia go (Xperia advance in the US) or Xperia Arco s, both of which are water resistant, and (at least the go, if not both) can be operated under water. The Arco also has a 12MP camera on it, which will hopefully be a Cybershot/Zeiss.
    The ubuntu phone project seems interesting

Looking back at this post, I see that this as been quite the rant,so, once again, forgive the long read.

MAJOR brownie points if you get it.

I want the iPhone 5.

However right now I'm rocking stock Android on the Google Nexus S. It was a phone sent from the gods above before the new OS updates ruined it. Now it's a laggy sack of shit straight from the anus of Satan himself.
