smartphones sales : best second quarter on record

I was against getting a smartphone for the longest time, but now that I've got one I'm hooked. It's so useful. I like to ask OK google everything. It's power is amazing. For those of you that are about to upgrade, you might wait a bit because 5G LTE is about to hit the market. It's so fast lag will be a thing of the past. One writer said " you will be able to Lojack everything". The only phone thats 5G capable right now is the Samsung S8. They expect 5G to come available the end of this year or the first quarter of next year.

To those that have no use for a smartphone, they are just one more thing that people see differently, there are many others. :)

I was a late adopter but, like was mentioned above, I would not give mine up although I have desktop, laptop, tablet, etc.

I'll be 79 soon and it helps me remember where I have been when I don't remember. :)

If I didn't have my smartphone, I wouldn't have noticed how much exercise I have had in the last three years:


It also collects info that big brother could use such as where I have been in the last 4 years:


But I don't care, in the scheme of the universe we are all like grains of sand on a beach.

So, if you get along fine without a smartphone more power to you. Each of us get to make our own choices and as long as those choices don't infringe on others all is OK.
