Rich-M Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Well that's a great price for a Windows phone! Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted July 26, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted July 26, 2014 I bought two of them. They're not the sturdiest in the world but for my use they are great. I already own one and when I saw the price, I decided to buy a couple more.

Dizzy86 Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Hey I have that phone with T-Mobile and I like it a lot it's small and light, and it's different from all my friends android phones which is cool. If you are on a budget like I am I really recommend it! Quote
FPCH Admin AWS Posted July 27, 2014 FPCH Admin Posted July 27, 2014 This is a pretty good phone and for the price it is even better. I like my iPhone, but, my next phone when my contract is up will be a Windows phone. 1 Quote Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
Rich-M Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 Not me you would have to pry my iPhone out of my dead hands....the camera is the best and so is the phone IMHO! 1 Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted July 30, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted July 30, 2014 My phones were delivered this afternoon by UPS. Funny, I didn't expect them until next week as I selected the free delivery option (Egg Saver) which usually means delivery by snail mail. I lucked out since I only ordered them on Saturday.

Rich-M Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Those aren't refurbished are they as I saw some at that price that were though the ad was a bit tricky to read. Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted July 30, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted July 30, 2014 Nope, they aren't refurbished, they are brand new. This was definitely a great deal as I paid $129.99 for my first one. The only down side, which I didn't notice until it was delivered, these are white.

Rich-M Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Get with it, its white because the iphone is white! BTW my white tower has been dusted once in 2 years. My black towers, every 2 weeks. Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted July 30, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted July 30, 2014 I don't care for the white but it's not a deal breaker. An otterbox will cover it....:D You can keep your white tower, it's not for me.:big_ha: Quote ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~ ~~Robert McCloskey~~
Rich-M Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Ha, ha I have a white iPhone, a white pc and even a white camera (Nikon J1 SLR with all kinds of white lenses)....I'd get white TV's if I could find them! Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted July 31, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted July 31, 2014 I figured out why the Lumina 521 (Windows 8) is so cheap. They just came out with the Lumina 530 (Windows 8.1) http://conversations.nokia.com/2014/07/23/lumia-530/ Quote ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~ ~~Robert McCloskey~~
Rich-M Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 That is usually the reason. We are used to that with iPhone releases. Quote
IceMan37 Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Funny, bad things tend to happen in groups lol. My Galaxy 3 was run over after I accidentally left it on the top of my car in the best buy parking lot after loading two 27" LCD's. So, I'm using my old T-Mobile MyTouch 4G temporarily. It happens to be a great little phone though for short usage. Depending on how my job shakes out over the next few months I will be upgrading to the Galaxy 5 soon ... although, I noticed I use a phone more as a 'phone" instead of a "net device" which makes me question just how much of a smartphone I really need. Also I don't like them too big that I can't slide it directly in my pant pockets. I have seen this phone out there (Lumina 521) I might get one just to play with so see how much I really need, and if I even need/want android. Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted August 18, 2014 Author FPCH Admin Posted August 18, 2014 The Lumia 521 is a Windows phone. One thing it lacks is LTE support but for the price, you can't beat it.

Rich-M Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 I am with you Catch, I use a phone more as a phone than anything. Yes I do credit card swipes with it and I use the calculator and calendar for dates but I am concerned over the release of the iPhone 6 which will be a bit bigger than my 4S and I really don't want that. The 5S is a 1/2 " longer and I can live with that so I am hoping they promote the remaining 5s phones when the 6 comes out or I may go to an Android. Those big Samsungs turn me off because of the size also. Quote
