How often do you change your phone: Poll Results
Share:
There's also a significant number of people who can't hold on to a single device even for a year. These users represent 23.67% of the participants, while the smallest group, or the remaining 12.88%, aren't really into changing their hardware often, so they stay with them for more than 2 years.
Not really surprising results here, but it's definitely interesting to see that there isn't a single common time interval for changing phones among PhoneArena readers.

Due to my misreading I got the idea for a new poll: How often do you CHARGE your phone

I used to buy a new phone every year when Verizon had one year contracts. Two years is just too long with the frequency that phones come out these days. I've now been off contract since August.

With over 32% I think more users change every 2 yrs...ijs

All the major carriers (I think) allow users to upgrade every 4-6 months before their contract is up. So I think I was like some others, I wasn't sure what to answer. I upgrade every 18 months, but for the poll I checked off 2 years.
It should have been written with time frames.

2 years plus for me. I have an i4 and I am completely satisfied with it. I usually upgrade when there are data speed bumps; hence, when AT&T goes LTE in my area, I will probably upgrade then to what ever is the latest greatest.
( My employer pays for my AT&T monthly bills - I prefer Verizon - but I prefer free more ;) )
Now that there are tablets, I see me upgrading tablets more than my phone ... so long as I can keep my phone in good condition and not lose it ;)
