So, I must admit, my current phone is the first smartphone that I've ever owned. When I was a younger, before I got it, I'd really REALLY REALLY wanted a Blackberry Curve....you know, back when Blackberry Curves were actually popular and, you know, around. I wanted one for years and then on my birthday, when I could finally upgrade, I went to my store. Low and behold, no Blackberry Curves. NONE. Only the new BB10 phones and the super old Bold. The salespeople at a "unbiased" store said don't get one. I was THIS CLOSE TO GETTING AN IPHONE 5S....the sales guy essentially said "the only reason people get iPhones is because their friends have them."...which is true in part. I opted to go, based on the environment that I worked in at the time, with an Motorola phone. It's good, they promptly discontinued it and there are no cases for it anywhere.
I guess that it's good that I didn't end up purchasing an Iphone because I would have bought every cute looking case available(AND THERE ARE SOOO MANY!!!!!!!!) 0.0
So, next year, when I upgrade, I will go with what I want(the Iphone whatever number it will be) and I'll be happy
