Is getting a phone on contract even worth it nowadays, especially with 2 year contracts (and I hear that's 3 year in Canada) becoming the norm now?

I think I'd much rather just buy they handset. How does /g/ feel?

are you going to use the same phone for 12-24 months?

then who the fuck cares if it's on contract or not?

the only people who care about contracts are people who cannot manage their money and end up not paying their bills

if you can get a cheaper non-contract plan, then the 2-3x price of the handset will likely be nullified within a year or two.

finding the cheaper non-contract plan is the hard part.
