I currently have a ZTE Prelude2 stripped down to basics, owned it for about a year, the battery lasts for about a week. Before that I had a Samsung R100 Stunt for about 5 years. Before that I had the very first model of the Qualcomm Sprint PCS cellphone since about 1995, it was about the size of a walkie-talkie, heavy, but had the best audio quality of all of them.

My current phone is less than 6 months old. That would give the impression that I frequently change my phone, but the truth is, I had my previous phone for more than ten years (indeed, when I bought it, all phones were dumb phones), and I would still use it had I not lost it.

That's a good reminder not to infer too much from data that was not collected to support a specific use. On its face, the question should allow us to estimate the age profile of the population of cell phones in use among Soylent News readers, but nothing more. One is tempted, though, (especially one who enjoys data analysis) to draw conclusions from the data at hand, even if those conclusions aren't exactly supported by the data.
Even aggregating data to infer how often we change phones implicitly assumes that each decision to change phones is independent. That may well be true in the case of replacement due to loss or breakage, but not true at all when the new iPhone comes out and the hordes queue up for an upgrade. The first step must be to decide what we want to know, then design to poll to truly answer that question. Preferably, we get more than one data point per respondent...

Is this the thread where we compare low UID's, er, old phones?
Original Motorola Razr V3. With the Cingular startup splash screen. I got it new in 2004 or so? $300 on contract haha. I use it for my personal cell... I have had to carry a succession of smartphones for work over the years so I never needed 3G on it. I do get looks nowadays when people seem me pull it out though. The screen has dust / dirt bits embedded below it but not enough to bother me. It's been like that since about 6 months after I got it anyway. It's on its 3rd or 4th battery I think.
On another, somewhat related, point: what's with people letting their jobs put their work email on the personal phone? It's ridiculous. I told my last W-2 job that, if they wanted me to check email or take calls after hours, they needed to provide me a smartphone for that purpose. Which they did after sending me email after-hours for two months and not getting a response until the next business day. However, a lot of the younger staff just put the company email on their PDAs and let the company call their cell. I told them they were crazy. But, I was a bit older than most of the tech staff too.

You write that you changed the battery in your Razr V3 several times. Was it saying "unable to charge" when the batteries failed? Do you use a Motorola charger or a third-party charger? As you might guess I've gotten a Razr V3 that says "unable to charge." TIA

Sorry no errors... the batteries just did not hold a good charge after a few years so I ordered replacements. Bit of a crapshoot but the battery I have now is ok. I got it from Batteries4less.com which seems to have gone out of business in 2014 hah
Your error sounds like something with the USB port. Like the link above, my first thoughts would be either check the pins or check the seating of the connection onto the board. Those mini-USBs ports were notorious for getting loose and detaching from the board... they were not properly designed for the (ab)use of constant attaching and re-attaching. Mine is super loose and takes a minute of fiddling to find the sweet spot so it can charge. It's been like that since 2008ish but I only have to do it once a day so it has not bothered me too much. I would see if you can open up the case, reseat the port or clean the contacts? You may have a corroded contact if the port housing came off the board and something got in underneath of it.

I'm going against the trend here. Most people are talking about how they've kept a phone so long. For me, its been 14 phones since January 2013. Started out with Nokia C3-00, went Nokia E6, then Asha 311. Followed that with a Samsung Galaxy Ch@t, then a Nokia N8, and a Galaxy Nexus. Then I went to a Nokia 511, followed by a Jolla, then a BlackBerry Q10. From there, Z30, Passport, and a Moto G. And finally, a OnePlus One, replaced by the OnePlus Two. I've had the OP2 for seven months, with no plans to move on.
I have sold all phones except the Moto G at a higher price than I paid. I ship to a friend in a country with a closed economy where they cost 2-3x what they cost in the States. The Moto G had a warning message that voided the warranty when I put CyanogenMod on it, so I sold it at a loss. The OP2 is the best phone thus far; dual-SIM, great community support, etc. The worst would probably be the Jolla. It did not even have 3G in the USA, and photos taken with it had a horrible blue tint. It was probably my most profitable sale though, since it was so hard to get initially.
I was late to the smartphone game. Didn't text until 2010, no data plan until 2014. The next three years was me trying to do everything to find a phone that would respect my privacy without having to go all Google or iPhone. First I went with Nokia, then BlackBerry. Both operating systems are dead now. I am happy with the current setup of CyanogenMod with a custom hosts file, extremely restricted Play store permissions, SELinux enforcing, etc. It's a pocket computer, except I actually have a bit of control.

Timeline. Bought my first cellphone in '97/98. I remember because I A) bought a house and the wife and I talked about keeping or nuking the land line and B) I worked for Qualcomm at the time and they bought my phone and I paid the monthly fees. It was a candy bar phone, lasted until, I dunno, '06. By the time the battery gave out a couple keys on the keypad weren't working well, the 5 and 7 I remember. As an example, let's says the '1' key didn't work. Press 1, nothing. Press 1, nothing. Press 1, 2-3 ones come out. Time for a new phone.
Phone 2. Flip phone. Bought when my candy bar phone decided my keypad wasn't an essential item in my life. By the time the battery gave out I had a cracked screen, and the flip part worked about half the time. As in, flip, nothing, flip, nothing, flip, hey I gots me a phone. Whoops, in a call and flip decides to flop.
Fast forward to phone 3. Birthday present to myself 7/12. HTC V One. Decided within a week I'd made a bad decision, phone HW was shit. Bought from Amazon, didn't have any other phone, kinda stuck with a POS hardware phone. As the months wore on realized the HW was better than the SW (kids: don't buy HTC). Phone is slower than snail snot on Valium. Navigation has been useless for at least a year. Doing anything with the phone is painful, it's just so farking slow. Things like getting a text, and trying to read it takes a good 2-3 minutes. Making a phone call is a good 5 minutes from turning the phone on to actually making the call.
So, changing the battery is just my excuse how?

Maybe true, but people trying to do anything reasonably productive such as typing or reading on a 4" screen look even sillier. These are pocket computers; the "phone" function is legacy, probably not even used 1% of the time, and only describes the type of network that the handheld computer primarily connects to. GSM is a broken standard, and texting isn't reliable internationally.
To see how far things have come, consider this: I cannot even deposit a check on my desktop anymore. Java RE is deprecated and none of my financial institutions ever made an updated version of their check scanner. I either have to mail it in, or take a photo from my cellular phone. Guess how I make deposits? Also consider that I can communicate with people far easier in real-time via smart phone than via a computer, especially if I am running Linux. Not using the phone function, but software that is encrypted end to end with source code available (Signal Private Messenger).
I also use it to make payments in public. It is an extra layer of security versus using a magnetic strip or chip and PIN which frankly, hasn't been deployed correctly in the Western Hemisphere yet. Again, more reason that it is a portable computer and not a "phone" in the traditional sense.
I would not be opposed to a 7" bezel-less device for portability. It would be only slightly larger than the Motorola Nexus 6 and would serve as my primary mobile computing device. It would fit in my pocket just fine; I don't wear skinny jeans, and I don't have tiny hands.

I use an old Droid phone as a bedside alarm clock, because I had a charging dock for it. The battery is still good enough to act as a UPS (with just a clock running and the screen normally off, it can last longer than my current actual phone does in normal use), so I still wake up if the power goes out. It keeps clocks synced through WiFi. And for me personally, having a variety of music set as alarms works better than one song, or a simple beeping sound.
It's currently at about 22 months uptime. I'm actually surprised how stable it is - I expected to find some sort of obscure bug around multiple DST changes on a single boot, but nope, works fine so far. Quite surprising given that it's still on Android 2.2 (or maybe 2.3), and would last maybe a week before crashing when I used it as my daily phone.

I came from the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini, so my phone size increased immensely. That being said, I got a very slim case and I don't think it's too large since I've gotten used to it. I wear slacks most of the time, so it's only noticeable when I'm wearing jeans.
I got the 32gb version, and I think it's way too little space, but non-expandable storage is the way things seem to be going so I had to bite the bullet on that. The new version of Android has been great so far, and I don't know how much of what I like is solely due to that. Overall, I'm a big fan, I don't regret my purchase.
I do have one gripe about Google Fi, the severity of which would depend on your use case. Fi preferentially uses wifi over cell towers in order to minimize data usage. So at home I won't touch my data at all, calls and SMS included. It also will VPN tunnel everything through open wifi hot spots when one is available. This is where my problem comes in.
Let's say I'm in the lobby of a hotel with wifi. The network doesn't require a key to connect, but everything goes to the hotel wifi landing page until you put in your name and room number. So if I just walk in, my phone will connect, and I won't receive push notifications, incoming calls, texts, etc. as long as I'm connected to that hot spot, or until I sign into that network. I haven't missed anything critical yet, but if someone is trying to get a hold of me, I will be blissfully ignorant until I realize.
