I don't have any games. I don't really use my iPhone for much aside from texting and music if I'm that honest. I'm a heavy texter, 30-40,000+ a month and I think the iPhone is just best for this. I only have around 10 apps, all of which are social-network related, aside from Kindle and Shazam, but that's it really.
Got a tip for us?

Oh I know that. You could replace android tablet with iPad in my post. I was just saying I prefer the larger screen of a tablet for gaming over my iPhone.
Well I'm surprised then.
I use my phone as a social networking tool. Plus lots of communication for work. Even right now I'm using tapatalk which I'd consider social networking.
Different strokes......

I have two folders games. I hardly play them. My son asked me once why i dont remove them if I don't play them. I said "maybe someday I'll be in a situation where a small child has had some bad news or something. I can pass them my phone to take their mind off it"
That alone is good reason to keep a few games
I like words with friends though.

I have loads of games but there's only a handful that I've played for more than ten minutes. When browsing the app store I much too often end up buying a $1 game that I won't ever really play.
I don't think there are any games among my top ten most used apps.

With BTstack and any Bluetooth controller i believe. I haven't actually done it myself, but i know it can be done.
40,000 texts a month...
1333.33 texts a day...
Let's say you spend 16 hours awake during any given day... 83.33 texts an hour
1.39 texts a minute...
You sir, need a job. Or a hobby.
This is so unbelievably narrow minded
I do have games on my iPhone but I never play them. I guess I keep them just in case I'm stuck somewhere, I'm bored to death and there's absolutely nothing else that I could do, but then I would probably be worried about conserving the battery power....
Narrow minded? No it's not. Everybody I know who has an iPhone, bought it solely for gaming purposes. If you're going to use an iPhone only for basic things such as texting and using the phone, then I really don't see the point in owning a phone like this.
While I have a lot of different things on my phone in case I'm stuck somewhere like the DMV and need to kill some time (e-book reader, music, flashcards, internet browser, etc) I really like the ability to play old-school console quality games on my phone if I'm in the mood
Final Fantasy III
Secret of Mana
Chrono Trigger
Mega Man II
Mega Man X

To clarify, that's both ways, not just sent. So that makes me seem a little more normal.

What?
It's a mini computer. I can shop, talk, email, do business, listen to music, take photos, watch vids, record vids, post them to YouTube, get directions, look up words and meaning online, use exercise timers, the list goes on.
Games like wtf

Heh for the last month FIFA 12 and MC3 have replaced the little facebook time on the iPhone.
But I am having way more fun
But I am having way more fun
I've got a fair share of games on my phone, but they can all fit in a single folder. Other then that I have another folder filled with tools and another filled with social applications which can lead to other games such as Facebook.
While I understand your point,Not all teenagers are like that posterGuess you only know 12 year olds then.
I actually use my iphone for taking down assignments that are due or quickly search something for my lectures.Overall its my personal AND educational phone,So no stereotyping please
