Is anyone on Ask-public looking forward to getting a new phone that is not an iPhone?

1 Answer

Answer :

Ooh me! me! pick me! I doubt I’ll ever get an iPhone. My mum wants a new plan, so I’m going with her to pick the phone and we’ll just swap the sim cards over so she can have my phone and I get the new one. Yay! Not sure what phone yet though.
