What type of phone do you use?

iPhone 5 and it's fine but I'm so fed up with iTunes I may give up on Apple products.

I got my new Nokia Lumia 635 Windows Phone yesterday. It seems very user friendly and I am happy I can hook up to wifi instead of using data all the time. I am worried I don't have enough data to use. I may have to increase it. I really don't use my phone all the much. I love being able to talk for texting. Such a great feature!

I'd give it a month and see what you really use. Even with Pandora I never hit 1g in a month. I mostly have it Hooked on WiFi so my data barely gets touched.

esmerelda Thanks! Right now we have only 300mb of data between DH and I. He has an old school flip phone so I am not worried on his end. The att guy told me I could get 1gb for an extra $5 a month. We'll see.

penguin129 How much data do you have? I have an iPhone with 2GB and never go over and I use my phone all the time. I just got a smartphone for the first time a year and a half ago and was constantly checking my data usage the first few months because I was paranoid about going over but I have never come close to the 2GB. Using wifi and not streaming helps a lot. Internet and email don't seem to take much data.

ETA: Just saw your response. I'd definitely give it a month and see. I have 2GB just because that's the lowest option Verizon gives but I never go over 1GB and I'm an obsessive phone user.

TheEleventhHour only 300 MB. Very small. Neither DH or I had smartphones before.

penguin129 I think you'll be surprised how little you use. I definitely was!

Ditto this. I grab WiFi everywhere so I almost never use the data. It's good to have but, really, you hardly ever have to use it anymore.
