Sorry to keep asking you so many questions but this has all been very helpful so far. As mentioned the iphone is all I've ever had so it's all I'm familiar with. It's pretty common that they'll come out with a new OS pretty frequently, so you either have to update it or not, but if you don't you lose a lot of accessibility with apps and features and whatnot.

With the BLU life one you linked on amazon that I dig, or with really any other phone than the iphone, is it the same way? Let's say I do purchase that phone and get all squared away and thigns are good...6 months from now is the OS going to be out of date already or is this a phone I can keep for 3 years with no issues?

The Blu phone ships with Kit Kat (4.4) but can upgrade to Lollipop (5.0). You should be fine on either for a while without losing support. If im not mistaken they still support Gingerbread which came out in 2010.

Here's a Nokia Lumia 635 at Walmart for $30. I like Windows Phone so this is a great deal. Plus it will be upgraded to Windows 10
