Cos I hate dislike normal ringtones - they're boring and unimaginative.

If everyone had the same one, how would you know whose phone was ringing?

Each to their own, I like my peace n quiet, but if you like noise, thats your choice

ring ring ring ring. How boring!!! I love different style ring tones. I have the hilltop hoods as my ring tone. Personally I dont care if people around me like it or not. 10 seconds of a ring tone is hardly going to annoy people and if it does then the problem lies with them. They need to lighten up

How would I ever  find Mr Elephant in Bunnings without mobile phones?

10 seconds?  that's a long time.

1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, 3 one thousand,

4 one thousand, 5 one thousand............

I would never be so rude as to insist anyone turn off their phone or change their ringtone because it annoyed me, emergencies can be anytime. ...
I never thought I would get so much use from one.
Today I took video and photos of my 8 yo grandie at another gymnastic comp.

I used to have The Pheasant Plucker's Song on one of my earlier phones - I got a few funny looks whenever that went of on a train.

I forgot to say.......my fitbit connects to my phone too.

I enjoy the simple pleasures in life, like standing in a trendy coffee shop and hearing a phone ring with the "old fashioned" telephone bell tone, and watching half the customers scramble to find their phones.

No imagination.

jessicadazzler, you have left out a reason which fits in with the ones that you have quoted.

There is a large population of owners who use their phone as a status symbol, most of the would not 1/8 of the capabilities or capacity of the phone but they feel that they have to be at the top of the phone owners ladder 🙂

That type loves to display their phone as though it was an achievement.
