As someone who has a fancy smartphone and is now back to a ****ty not-so-smartphone, I say this quote is more than enough reason to go for a cheaper contract. I mean, cmon, hookers and goddamn blow.

That being said, I had an EVO 4G. Great phone, if you're someone that spends a lot of time dicking around on the internet, or want to record videos and post them to your facebook so you can pretend like you have friends that care about the boring things you do in your life, or if you want to mess around with weird little apps that do things like tell you the ohm rating of a variable resistor. So really, a great phone for a dork like me.

But if all you really want a phone for is making phone calls, texting, and using as a goddamn watch, then I don't see a point in upgrading. Most of the stuff on newer phones is really JUST bells and whistles, or an excuse to be lazy, or some horrid comibation of the two. My EVO got thrown against a wall by a psychotic bitch, and so now I'm back to my five year old LG Rumor2, and though it glitches out on me sometimes, I can still get everything I need to do with a phone done.
