What other phones do you carry in addition to your now 10

[j_hansen]

I've no other reason than I like to have a quality backup phone, a minor ocd issue probably
When both my 8 and 9 are sold I think I'll buy a brand new top Xiaomi or a lightly used/refurbished Huawei as a spare and fun

I'm curious as to why people carry 2 phones. I understand a work phone and personal phone, but do any of you carry 2 personal phones? And that's not even going into separate carriers.

I carry 2 personal phones. I prefer them both to be Galaxy Notes. I'm an S Pen addict. My job requires me to always be available and the networks sometimes misbehave where I live. Work phones not provided. Thank God since they wouldn't be a Galaxy Note.

iPhone 11 Pro Max and Note 10 Plus .. iPhone has work and personal ... Note personal....

 

[Mike Dee]

I carry Note10+, S10+, and iPhone 7 for work

iPhone X, which I use at weekends and when I want to use an iOS device for some reason...

Reception is great in both. I live in Brazil, TIM 4G network.

And how's the reception? I like my now 10 but to be honest I'm tired of the terrible reception. I know it isn't carrier related because my son has an LG and he gets service where I don't and we are on the same plan. My husband's note 9 is also better.. Not much but better. I'm looking for a back up phone with good reception that I can take on trips.

Have you tried resetting the network settings? I had to do this twice on my S10+ (then I upgraded to Note 10+) after I had traveled to the other side of the state. I would place a call and I could hear them but they couldn't hear me, as soon as I did the reset, everything worked perfectly. I'm on T-Mobile as well in the Seattle area.

Why don't you buy the same LG phone your son is using?

I recently bought this Samsung J3 Orbit Tracfone from Target for only $49 (price just went up to $69 now), I use it as my burner phone. I'm pretty sure nobody can beat me for cheapest quality 2nd phone, haha.

Okay, actually, not so true...I also have an old Samsung Note 4 that I keep in the drawer due to a bad battery. I'm currently waiting for a new replacement battery from Amazon.

I have an iPhone 10 because of work, and HATE it! No back button and attaching a pdf is a royal pain. It crashes and drops calls ALL the time...could be AT&T on that front though. My main daily driver is the Note 10+...unlike some folks I use the stylus constantly, and I LOVE Bixby! Once you figure out that it operates the hardware and macros it is hard to use another phone imo.

 

[Vizi]

iPhone 7 plus for work.

 

[tekjunkie28]

I carry a iPhone pro Max and receiption is good on both devices and I am on Tmobile.

How much better is the battery life on the pro max vs note?

 

[Lepa79]

Note 10 plus and one plus 6t. Both on t mobile. Excellent reception.

Hahaha twins! Note 10+ daily driver of course.

 

[anon(5990673)]

S10 Plus 512 GB Ceramic Black and iPhone 11 Pro Max 256 GB Space Grey

Using the 11 pro Max as my main device though !

 

[Bkdodger1]

I think both are exceptional...my iPhone is greatly improved and gets the nod...although Note is a champ too ...

For those with more than one phone on here....do you maintain/pay for a separate line for each one of them or you just swap sims?

I have 2 lines. But if I am goin to use a phone heavily, my main sim is going in it.

Lots of folks here also have personal and work phones.

Honestly, having 2 phones is pain in the behind. Going back and forth is not fun. Sure, if your work demands it, you can have one phone for work.

Even though I still have an additional line, I mainly just have one phone when I am out.

I am the third . I just traded in for the OnePlus 7t. Note 10 plus is my daily driver but I usually switch over to my OnePlus for the weekends.

 

[strikeIII]

iPhone 11 Pro Max for work and Note 10+ for personal. Need both platforms for work support both on AT&T with no reception issues. I also have a Pixel 4 that I've been using instead of my N10 since it's release but I'll be switching back this weekend.

 

[Bkdodger1]

I have both lines active .. I'm back on Verizon for both .. I switch regularly too .. lol just like my phones ...

I'll probably be switching to Pixel 4 XL and Note 10+ instead going forward. So pixel and note lineups.
