Oh why not... let's start a question of the week thread. Every week a question is asked and everyone can give answers/feedback.. maybe it will come in very useful for some members. So, if you happen to be on here on Saturday-- you can post the new question for the week!  So, here we go... Question for this week is: "I'm looking to buy/upgrade my phone... what kind of phone should I buy and why?"

I have no idea. I just have a plain old phone, nothing fancy and nothing "smart." I have a dumb phone.

LMAO! I upgraded a year ago to a smartphone- Samsung S2 and it's okay. Worst part about it has got to be the battery. I feel like it's always dying.

I just don't even know if I really want one. Too much hassle...plus you have to pay a ridiculous amount for the data plan. Stupid!

Ah... well see, not me. Shhhh... somehow (and I'm not entirely sure how) I managed to get it without a data plan... so I don't pay for it (but I do use my home wireless if I want look something up). I only really use it to talk and text, not data. Guess that's not what a smartphone is really for... but ohwell.

I have an android phone. Got it for my birthday and everything is great with it. But I love playing music and only recently discovered everyone else could hear it too. Bit embarrassing as walked round supermarket completely in aware. I love these kind of phones though and I use them a lot for games, music and Facebook. All depends what u would want on it. And be very careful if its a touch screen. As I broke my last screen by dropping phone and was cheaper to get a new one

See, I just don't have time when I'm out and about to use my phone for anything other than texting and calling. There have been a time or two where it would have been nice to have the internet to look something up such as store hours or what not when I'm not at home, but I really don't think I'd use it enough. Plus, I have my Nook so I use that when I do have "spare time" away from home to get online or read.

I use my phone for everything but I am having issues for getting the internet when I am out the settings don't seem to work well on it. I am addicted to it though. Used to have like 1000 messages a month when I was at college and would be determined to use them all. I have to take my charger to work as I do drain the battery playing games etc.

I plug mine into my home wifi and it comes in handy when I'm coding on the main computer- I can just refresh my phone and get a quick glimpse of what I've done wrong.  Of course, I can also use the wifi if I'm in a public place that has it like- Starbucks or McD's to do just what you said - check online real quick. but other than that... I don't need any data. I don't use the GPS- I just pull over and ask for directions the old fashioned way!

I have a tablet. Pros it does what my phone does but on a larger scale. I can watch programmes on it and it helps me post here but the keyboard is a bit awkward until I get a proper one. My partners kids love it for games. Cons definitely the keyboard. Battery life etc good. I would be too scared to take it out the house encase I dropped it. I can't play Facebook games on it. And pictures when I try and view them for posting here can appear funny.

Why can't you play facebook games on it? New question of the week: What are your favorite places to buy stuff from online?

It basically only plays games you can on your mobile phone. So only really candy crush.
I would have to say Amazon now after reading peoples reviews. I used to also get things from play.com which were quite good and eBay which were not always. Amazon has always been good to me so stuck with it. Got myself a nice hoover from it. I got quite excited about it, silly I know

I've never even heard of play.com  What does it sell? I've used amazon many times without any problems. I've also bought electronics from bestbuy.com and target.com and of course walmart.com LOL
