Honestly there are officially more mobile devices than people in the world. No other technology has impacted us like the mobile phone. It's the fastest growing man made phenomenon ever.

I noticed that i have never met a Nigerian that doesn't have two phones, (abi una don see?) it's either an Iphone and a small nokia torchlight to go with it..

Now people have these devices for different reasons, i have a friend that has 4 devices and i'm like how can someone manage 4 phones?? He told me he spends a lot of time on the phone, likes taking calls on his Samsung while reading emails on his BlackBerry, snapchat's on his Iphone and then the fourth one for his paroles. If he loses one phone, he can call it with the other. "If one battery dies, he has an actual working phone as well," he says.

I am totally a two phone person, i hated the idea until i realized my battery always went out before i returned home from either work or hanging out with friends.

Imagine how painful it is to be at a cool spot and your battery dies and then everyone is on snapchat but not you...After the torture i just had to get another device.

So now i have a Samsung and a Tecno L8..since i know that the Tecno L8's battery lasts long i shared the responsibility between my two phones..i use the Samsung for snapchat only and the Tecno L8 for work related events like read emails, Whatsapp, bbm e.t.c That way you don't miss out on anything.

So my point is, having two phones is a necessary evil, it's still not easy to manage.And even though people have these devices for some very weird reasons like not wanting their spouse to find out they are cheating..It is very important to have more than one device.

Anyway there is the question of how best to carry two phones or more..How best do you manage your devices and what reasons do you have them for

I have two phones; a BlackBerry Q5 and a Nokia torch-light.

The BlackBerry has my private line, I almost never take or make calls with it, it's chiefly for connection to the internet and mobile applications (I'm not a social media freak). It also serves as a hotspot for my Laptop which I use to work (I hate modem!).

The Nokia torch-light is mainly for calls and playing Snake Xenxia, the strong battery life makes my lines reachable 24/7.

With just a power bank, they're both easy to maintain since I'm not crazy about being online for social media, it's mainly work and average fun.

Nokia Torchlight...No.1 Backup fone in Nigeria since Smartphones

1. Network instability (readability)
2. Cheap calls (call zone)
3. Partake in every network promo Ad

I'm confused here, what devices do you use for these purposes and how many do you have..nawa
