    Default Multiple Device Switchers Post Here :)

    Would be interesting what devices people have had over the years, what the switched tk and what they use now. This being a blackberry forum we have obviously used other brands but either came back or had two devices at once.

    I'll start it off;.

    Bold 9000 (two years, loved it) > IPhone 3G (1 year, hated it) > Bold 9700 (1 year, liked less than 9000) > Bold 9900 ( 1 Month, Loved it, she bricked in August of launch date) > Iphone 4 (4 Months, hated it) > Bold 9900 (3 Months, bricked again) > Iphone 4S (5 Months, couldn't stand it and last iPhone I'll own) > Samsung S2 X (2 Months) > Bold 9900 (1 year) > Samsung S3 (Just got it)

    LOL.
    Because I do loads of browsing and minimal calling the tablet size of the s3 makes it pleasurable to browse. I keep my trusty 9900 for serious occasions. Iphone? Never again.

    This topic is to get a list of all the devices you have ever had, not if you are switching or thinking about switching.

    Not so sure what is misleading about the title... Just wanted to know what type of devices people have switched to and from. Some of us have more than one device... The other thread is about people who are planing to switch.

    Oh well!

    I believe you are correct that a lot of people on sites like this have multiple devices. I, myself, use both a BB 9810 and a SGS II. Both offer different things to fit my mood. I am not loyal to any one device or brand but rather like choice.

    Well it's like reading between the lines, "people that have switched devices post here." It Is misleading.
    A Better title thread would had been "how many devices have you owned and then switched from"

    OK well I assume this is about listing smartphones so I won't list all of the feature phones I had before.

    -Apple iPhone 3G, iOS 2.1 - 3.0 (20 months, loved it but eventually got bored)
    -HTC/Google Nexus One, Android 2.1 - 2.2 (4 months, liked at first but grew to hate due to laggy performance)
    -Samsung Galaxy S, Android 2.1 - 2.2 (3 months, liked it but grew bored of Android)
    -Samsung Omnia 7, Windows Phone 7.0 (4 months, loved it but the screen grew terrible burn in and my hatred of AMOLED began)
    -Palm Pre 2, webOS 2.1 - 2.2 (17 months, loved it but began having issues with incoming texts and calls disappearing)
    -HTC Radar, Windows Phone 7.5 (8 months so far, potentially 11 once switching to BB10 in Feb, like it but definitely switching to BB10 on day 1)
    -BlackBerry L-Series (hopefully)

    I see you didnt bother reading my initial post only the title. Not sure why you decided to troll but whatever.

    "Device switchers" means individuals constantly switching devices, don't know why this is so hard for you?

    Read between the lines less and read the actual lines more.

    Thanks to those that listed their phones

    Lets see. In the last eight years:

    Sony Ericsson T237 - One year
    Sony Ericsson T237 - Two years (replacement for previous one after water damage)
    Motorola Razr V3T - Nine months
    Samsung something or other - 18 months (replacement for Razr after water damage)
    BlackBerry 8700 - Four months
    BlackBerry 9000 - Three months
    BlackBerry 9700 - 18 months
    BlackBerry 9860 - Currently at eight months

    I am a pretty heavy devise switcher but I do have some that I want to give special mention too. The Samsung whatever, a slider that still works but I need to charge it. Fantastic little punter phone, very reliable. My 9700 also a very reliable phone for me. However both of these I never really bonded with. They were just mechanical for me and had no personality. My 9000 was my favourite for its size, design, build and feel. Though I didn't have it long the guy I sold it too kept it close to another year before he broke it. That phone I did bond with. Also my 9860 has also been a reliable piece but its also definitely helped me make my decision for what phone to get next. N-Series baby here I come! No move virtual keyboard especially since I have a PlayBook anyway.
    8700, Bold 9000, Bold 9700, Torch 9860, Z10! No case FTW!!!

    I am NOT trolling! I am just agreeing with Raino, that's all. There are Lots of ways to say Individuals constantly switching devices. I am just saying the way you Posted it does not read correctly. IF IT had been read correctly, Raino would not had posted His opinion.

    Default Device Switchers Post Here :)

    8310 - 8 months (liked it but wanted an upgrade)
    9700 - 6 months (liked it but wanted an upgrade)
    3GS - 8 months (loved it but iOS 5 upgrade killed it)
    Infuse 4G - 4 months (hated it, terrible phone and horrible representation of Android)
    9360 - 3 months (it worked, decent window into os 7)
    9900 - 5 months (loved it but just too many problems and not enough time to fix them)
    iPhone 5 - current (love it, no complaints so far)

    Great thread OP. I always enjoy seeing lists of what people are using both past and present.

    Default Device Switchers Post Here :)

    I don't have a list of time frames, I'm not even sure of the exact order or device numbers, but in the last ten years...

    Motorola flip phone, v90 or something? Idk.

    Nokia music phone, big blue thing with qwerty.

    Pink Motorola Razr.

    Samsung Gravity 1

    Small Nokia soccer mom phone which died in the washing machine

    Big Nokia soccer mom phone which lives in a box somewhere

    Nokia e63

    LG Neon which I took apart and found a child's thumprint on the motherboard

    BlackBerry Curve 8320

    BlackBerry Curve 8900

    BlackBerry Torch 9800

    BlackBerry Bold 9780

    Mytouch Slide 3G

    Iphone 2G

    Iphone 3Gs

    Sidekick 4G

    BlackBerry Curve 9360

    I'm sure there's more, but those are the ones I can remember. Prior to the BlackBerry phones, they're not in chronological order.

    I've had a lot of different phones. Some I only kept for a few months, sometimes I switch back and forth.

    My current work phone:
    Bold 9900 - Not a fan. It's good enough for work though.

    Current personal phone:
    iPhone 5 - Really liking this phone so far, better than any phone I've owned.

    Past phones:
    Curve 8900 - decent phone, my first Blackberry, was used so it wore out quickly
    iPhone 3G - Liked it, but iOS wasn't very mature when I used it.
    Bold 9700 - Loved this phone. Was amazing for me until it started to fall way behind in late 2010.
    Palm Pre - Used for a few months on and off. Great OS, terrible hardware.
    Galaxy S - Would probably still be using this phone, but I gave it to my wife. Great phone.

    I've also carried around some Windows phones (Old WM phones and a lumia 710), a couple of different Android devices as well as a few BB devices (Storm, torch). But I didn't use them long enough to consider them as a primary phone.

    yeah. I've had a bit of a problem in the recent past with finding my "niche," in smartphones..so to speak. but blackberry reigns supreme and now the question is: how many BBs will I swap between?!
