# There's always too much fuss about latest gadgets
computers I can understand but phones have far exceeded what they are actually for.

# I know
it's a bloody treadmill with a stick and carrot. I keep imagining a huge Raiders of the lost ark warehouse somewhere with a load of iphone 6 and 7s scheduled for release only after they've shifted the latest ones

# They are ace, but equally, when they fuck up, they're a pain in the arse.
My missus has an LG something or other with Android Fruit Pastille on it. Great for internets, emithers and all kinds of cool stuff, but battery life is utter shit. My crappy old £15 Sony nothingphone can send texts and call people, but battery life is measured in weeks, not hours.

# when they have resonably priced tarrifs
and you don't have to apay a fortune for the phone i will consider getting one.

until that time i shall stick with my android phone which cost me nothing and has a monthly cost 1/3 of an iphone tarrif.
