Does anyone else NOT want an iphone?!?

Question

my whole family has iphones.

i have the blackberry pearl. i love it.

its a trooper. i have dropped it in a snow puddle, it fell in the sink while i was brushing my teeth and it fell into half a cup of pepsi. and it still works.

my little brother dropped his iphone in a pool and it was toast.

when people i know see an iphone and they say "omg i want one so bad", i tell them i dont want one and they look at me like im crazy.

i hardly wanted an ipod(green nano 2nd generation.) but i got it for christmas a few years ago after my 3 year old creative zen micro died.

but i have my phone, my ipod, laptop and my camera. i love them all.

i dont feel the need for an iphone. i dont get all they hype.

i feel like they are too big and wouldnt even fit in my pocket.

i mean they arent huge.. but i would probably get a hard case for it if i ever got one. and that adds a lot of bulk.

yes i do know how "cool they are" and all the "cool stuff they can do"

but i dont want one. im content with my seperate electronics.

.. tell me am i crazy?

Answer 1

ur not crazy at all, i feel the same way.  my motorola does everything i need it to do, and it cost MUCH less!  :)

Answer 2

i dont, not even sure what it is! haha. i have a regular cell phone, nothing fancy, not even a camera phone n i'm happy with it. i'm not all into that fancy stuff either.

Answer 3

hear hear

Answer 4

I feel the same way. I don't have a phone right now but soon I will get one and I'm contemplating the LG Rumor or Sidekick08 because I like to text/IM. The iPhone is cool and all but there are plenty of other phones that do everything the iPhone does. And if it's not everything it's minor things that I most likely don't need and just adds on money. I don't like touch screen phones that much either. I need some buttons or something LOL. Also, to have an iPhone you have to pay a huge bill which is ridiculous. I don't know why people go crazy over it.

It's like if you have one good for you but if you don't GOOD FOR YOU TOO :)!

Answer 5

Was JUST wondering this the other day after my facebook said "24 of your friends have added the facebook application for iPhone."

I don't like touch screen texting, period. I don't care what else it can offer, haha.

Answer 6

you are soooo not alone. i have no interest AT ALL to have an Iphone... none what so ever. My mom got one and was all happy-- and i looked at HER like she was stupid. haha i am very happy with the phone i have (the voyager) and have no desire to even have an iphone. i think the media has hyped it up WAY to much and that is all that it is too me... hype. not worth it at all.

Answer 7

i see your points but the iphone is an ipod an internet souce(witch is an amazin one)and has some pretty cool app so you may like your phone but if you have an iphone with a good warente i dont think anything is better  

Answer 8

u arent alone in this one.......its jus more money,ull b betta of wit da fone u hav now nd it also shows u dat ur fone is betta wit da things it's been through....lolz

Answer 9

I think ppl want it...cuz they cant have it. and those who can..dnt really want it.

i have my voyager and a touch screen iPod...so i dont feel the need 2 buy and iPhone. I also think verizons way better. anyway..ur not crazy...u just think differently then othr ppl.

Answer 10

I'm not the best judge of an iphone, because Ive never even used one but I can tell you the reason why i'd never use one...

I personally don'tt like to follow trends, and the iphone seems like a major trend to me.  I never got an ipod either.  

The touch screen on an iphone is another reason I would never buy one, all of my friends are constantly cleaning the screen.  I have enough trouble keeping my phones screen clean and Idon't have to touch it!

Im not opposed to having a device that does many cool things, thats what I like about my sony ericcson phone.  I have everything i need on it; it has a walkman (this is the reason i dont need and ipod) a 4 megapixel camera, video/sound recording, it even has a super bright flash light! It does have internet capability, but I like to keep the internet separate from my phone so I never use it.  It had my sony for 4 years and would never trade it, its stylish capable and SMALL!

And like you were saying about you blackberry, my phone is very sturdy. My sister threw it onto the concrete (long story) and it only got a small scratch!

Youre not crazy at all! I agree with you! It cringe a little every time somone asks me why i dont have an iphone. I dont need all of the features and iphone has to offer...
