  1. What functions/features does your cell phone have?

  2. What percentage of your cell phone's functions/features do you use in addition to making calls?
For example, if you cell phone has text messaging and a camera and games, besides being a phone, do you use all of them, some of them, or none of them? So your percentage will be base on how many functions/features your phone has (not what it doesn't have) and how many you use.

If you have 3 or 4 games and you play one game, then you're using the game feature.

Some features may include:
  • Camera (includes stills and video)
  • Games
  • Texting
  • Emails
  • Internet capabilities
  • Bluetooth
  • Notepad
  • Keyboard (not just the numbers)
  • Headset
  • Extra Memory
  • Calendar (includes alarm and date settings)
  • Misc. programs
  • Etc.
I was just curious of how much "stuff" is on your phone and how much of that "stuff" you actually use.

Dave

About 60%. I don't like phones much, so I have a very cheap cell. Only text messaging and voicemail are the only things I use often. And the alarm clock.

The rest of the features (though there aren't many) go unused.

I use a little over half. While I may not use them extensively, I do use many functions periodically.

I only use my phone as a phone, last time I tried using it for other stuff like IM and web surfing my bill got too big, it is not worth it really, I can use my laptop for that, I do take pictures with it though, since it has a 2 mp camera build in.

I use most all of the features at one time or another, but on a regular basis...about 70% of the features.

I agree with Brian on the usage of the features. It can be handy, but for the cost and inconvenience of the "little buttons and screen" a regular machine is much better.

A friend of mine gave me a Nokia N70 and I find that most of the features on it are a waste of time, you have to press about 8 or 9 tiny buttons to access even the most basic of features plus the battery life (new battery) is abysmal if you use it for any thing other than telephony or texting (I use the camera now and again), I think that manufacturers only put these extras into the phones so that people who pay for them can have bragging rights, my phone is better than your phone, I have more money to throw away than you do nya nya n nya ya. oops sorry I didn't get your call my battery ran down because I was listening to my mp3s', playing games, surfing the net, sending emails etc etc.

If that's all it has and you use them, then it's 100%!
