Just a basic flip phone for me. I’m on a old Verizon “Free Up” account and I buy just enough minutes every year to keep it active. I wouldn’t mind having a smartphone but I can’t justify the expense.
I have a landline. My husband and 3 sons all have smart phones. I seldom go anywhere that at least one of them isn’t riding along with me. At home I surf the net and play games on my big screen monitor. When out and about my Kindle Fire lets me read books and play a game and, if for some reason the ones with smart phones didn’t feel like looking something up, I can use one of their phones as a hotspot and look things up on a bigger screen.
Me too - I have a Verizon LG flip phone. It can take pictures, but there isn’t a way to take the pics off the phone.
I text all the time with friends and family, and make too many calls to buy an hourly plan. Whenever my upgrade comes due, I just give it to my husband or teenager.
I’m more than happy with my phone - it’s small and compact. Any internet’n that needs doing is done on a >gasp< desktop at home

I have a Samsung, I can also take pictures, but honestly I have no idea if I can get the pics off the phone. I rarely use it for pictures.
I think I have a semi-smart phone. It doesn’t do all the stuff my sons’ phones do, but I can call, text, and take pictures. Actually, as far as being a mobile phone, I think it’s better than my sons’ fancy ones. It never drops calls. So I would say it’s community-college smart but not Ivy League-smart. Someday I may even figure out how to put my music on there. (The phone is smarter than I am. But lazier.)
Huh, never thought about that, but I have teachers in my school lined up to use my phone, since it seems to be the only one in the building that can get good reception.
It’s funny when some of them turn my phone over and around, and can’t figure out how to use it to make a call (hint, you have to flip it open, and touching the 1 inch screen really won’t do anything…
I have a pay-as-you-go flip phone that is so dumb it won’t even send texts.
I have a flip phone, but also a iPad.
I have a flip phone, age 64.
Mine is LG but my service is thru AT&T. The one time I took a pic that I wanted to have, I texted it to my husband and he then emailed it to me. If we go somewhere that I think I’ll want pictures, I’ll take my camera. What a concept!!! 
No smart phone for me.
I have the same flip phone my wife purchased for herself 10 years ago. She got a smart phone and gave the old flip phone to me to use about three years ago. I lost the phone about a month ago and haven’t found it yet. Guess it hasn’t been much of a priority, as I’ve used the flip phone maybe 20 times during those last three years.
Age 52.
I have a flip phone, not a smart one.
I recently ended up with a flip phone, upgraded by AT&T because the phone they previously gave me was no longer supported by AT&T’s network. Pay-as-you-go, $100/year covers it. I only use it when I travel, which is not often lately.
No cell service where I live so no point to paying for a permanent plan.
I pay for a “family plan” where my wife, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, and nephew all have smart phones. I asked for the dumbest phone in the store. Cost $24.99. It has text capability if I want to punch each number like 2-3 times to get a letter, but I told Verizon not to activate it. This one does have a camera (my previous one did not); however, I’ve never felt the urge to just start taking pictures of anything. I’m not sure how to go about using the camera function, though I suppose it’s just a matter of pushing the right button.
It’s pretty much academic, as I leave it off 95% of the time. Not silent. OFF.
My prepay-as-I-goTracFone flipfone had to be upgraded because the network no longer supported it (2G vs. 3G?) so I bought an Alcatel nonflip dumb phone which I carry to use in emergencies or for (rare) long distance calling. Bought first one after I had a flat tire on the Interstate, without one. I wish I could turn it off so when TFone calls me it won’t turn on and run down the battery in two days of non-use.
Present. I had only a landline until I moved out of the country, now I have no phone all. I use googlephone if I have to make a call to America, and I never need to make any to anywhere else.
Flip phone only - no landline. I use it to make and receive calls about a handful of times per week. Don’t participate in any social media - The SDMB is the only forum I post on. No TV, no religion. I have a Keurig, though (it was a gift - and I’m crazy about the thing. Never would have thought I’d give up press pot coffee, but I am a convert). As someone further up posted - none of my choices are made in protest, I just prefer a simple life and quiet environments. 53 years old.
My wife and I both have flip phones, and our 17 year old has one of those with a slide out keyboard. 19 year old has a smart phone, which my inlaws got for him when he went to college and didn’t take away when he dropped out. They have a family plan that we’re all on. I have a tablet that will have to be replaced any day now. My students are incredulous that I don’t have a smart phone, but I don’t really feel like I need one.
I don’t have a smartphone, and I use a desktop computer too. Both work just fine; why replace them?
I don’t want to be reachable, so I don’t have one. I have a cell phone I got for five bucks that I turn on only when I’m going on a long drive, in case I need to call a tow truck or something.
I’m building a new house, and I will be installing smart devices, so I may have to break down and get a smart phone if that turns out to be the best controller, but I will look very hard for alternatives first.
