HTC for life and Blackberry for work 
What phone do you have?

- Start date
I finally got a new one - Samsung Galaxy Ace II. Got it because the young whipper-snapper in the Bell store told me it's the same one he recommended to his dad and it should only take me a week or two to learn how to use it. Said the others were for tech-savvy people his age. If he wasn't so polite about it, I might have had to give him a noogie or something. Actually worked out pretty well though, I like it.
My first smartphone (and I feel all the more intelligent for owning it):

I'll likely have it until I retire. Had my last one for seven years; the one before - same thing. I've only ever owned two cell phones before this one. I don't change 'em until I'm forced to.
My daughter and son-in-law wanted me to take it back and get a bigger one but my hands aren't that big, I have trouble not dropping this one. So, I'm keeping it. So far, so good.

I have Galaxy Q. It blew my mind that I could outright purchase it for $200 WITHOUT having to sign up for a contract to do it.
It wasn't that long ago that you would have to sell off a kidney to be able to come up with the money to buy a brand new cellphone.
I got the Galaxy Q since I was moving away using Blackberry exclusively and the Galaxy Q was the only thing that offered a keyboard that was in my price range at the time.

Yeah. Embarrassing, eh?
What's funny is that I wrote at least 1,000 app descriptions for publishing on iTunes, where I had to describe all the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch features/benefits/fun, even though I had no real idea what I was talking about. It's really too bad, I could have had all those apps for free. Oh, well.
I upgraded from this:
Please note that, unlike the image above, mine is in beautiful condition. Doesn't always work but it's in beautiful condition.
This is a picture of the only other cell phone I've ever owned. I named her Big Bertha and she was the best damn phone I ever had. Got her in '99 or 2000, only replaced it in 2008 because there was no more analog transmission. She is still around and in mint condition, too. I gave her to a nephew, who collects antiques.

Wow... 2008 walking around with that thing! haha
