Cell phone or smart phone? 携帯かスマートフォンか


This is my cell phone which I've been using for 2 years. Obviously it's been stumped by my foot. It's still working good though. May be it's time to buy a new cell phone. But I was thinking getting smart phone this time. Anyone who has smart phone, do you only use smart phone? or you also have cell phone besides that? The problem is I don't really know much about what smart phone can do. And I'm afraid if I can get comfortable with using it. I'm trying to keep up with Joneses this year.

2年間使ってる僕の携帯です。明らかに足で踏みつぶされてますね。ちゃんと機能するけど。新しい携帯買おうかな。スマートフォンってやつはどうなんだろう。スマーフォン持ってる人ってのは携帯と両方持ってるのかな?問題なのはスマートフォンって何ができるの?僕がちゃんと使いきれるのかな。今年は流行に遅れをとらないようにしようと思う今日この頃。

  2. I was used to use a smartphone, but bought a JApanese cell phone (Docomo), when I came to Japan last year and to be honest, I prefer the cell phone.
    A smart phone can be very useful with all those apps, but Japanese cellphones also offer a lot f apps, so thereäs no difference regarding this.
    I think a usual cellphone is more comfortable for writing sms, emails or even phoning than a smartphoe.

    And to be honest, a Japanese cellphone still has more usual functionas a smartphone does not has, for example Felica I use very often since Im living in Japan.

  3. I haven't moved to a smartphone yet, but I have a regular phone which I like. However it's getting old too and I'm thinking about getting a smartphone. It's just that I don't really want to pay more per month for a smartphone plan. BTW where in TX did you go to school? I'm from TX, and I think your english great!

  5. I only use a smart phone. I use a Droid.. which works really well. Smart phones can do just about everything. T.V., Movies, Internet, Record Video with sound, Take excellent Pictures, Edit pictures and movies, and basically everything you can do with an actual phone. I prefer regular flip phones though, but thats just me avoiding people. So it really depends on what works best for you.

  6. I haven't changed to smartphone but have tried android and after the confiuration is done, it's pretty easy to work with (the hard part is configuring). It's funny you mentioned you stepped on your phone, today I got my phone's battery run over by a truck :D while i dropped it trying to make it to the bus!

  7. i have both a cellphone and a smart phone. But i prefer smartphone. Its nearly complete. But i really depends on how u really need it. If u want calls or sms, cellphone is the perfect one. But if u do like surfing in the net or watching videos, sending email or such smartphones are the best. But all depends on the belrand u will choose. I prefer sony ericsson or a samsung. But i dont know the brands there in japan.
