I had a Sony Ericsson for 3 or 4 years; for the first year or two it could go almost a week without charging (it was always on but I rarely used it).  I&#x27;m still not a huge mobile user, but now that I have a smart phone it&#x27;s nice to have Google search and maps when I need them.  On the other hand, while I don&#x27;t think my phone has much pull in my life, I can certainly see why a heavier user would want to get away from it.  Sometimes it seems like all people do is stare at their phones.
