Do you care about the power of the hardware in your smartphone?

the thing i dislike about smartphones as well as consoles, is the fact that you have to buy another one to get the "better" one after your hardware gets outdated, on PC however you can just upgrade it anyway you want to , and its much easier thing to do than most people make it out to be, i don't want to waste space and have a billion phones or consoles, i just want to have enough power to make the games work as they are meant to be.

However, with phones, if your smart you be patient and get it for free.

I haven't paid for  smartphone in over 3 years.

I've owned 2 blackberries and 2 androids.

Give it time and you'll always find what you want for free (with upgrade) somewhere.

Additionally, you can then sell your older phone and actually make money. :)

How?  O_o; i never get anything for free.

You don't live in US, so it may not work for you.

In US, all carries offer 2year contract for their service in exchange for discounted phones. Additionally, various retailers will offer sales on top of those discounts.

So 99.9% of new smartphones will cost someone $199 with a 2yr contract. Then a retialer like Best Buy or Walmart will offer that same phone for free with a 2yr contract.

I simply wait for these free deals. Especially around holidays.
